No jobs for men with 'weird' haircuts in Saudi

Saudi authorities told thousands of applicants for government jobs they would not be accepted if they wear improper clothes or have a weird haircut.

The civil service ministry made the statement at its website after inviting nearly 5,000 Saudis to have tests on Sunday to take up jobs at various government offices.

“The ministry stressed that those who come to the test wearing improper clothes or have weird hair cut would be barred,” Sada newspaper said, quoting the statement.
