Do looks matter when getting a job?

I've been applying for jobs and I haven't been able to land one yet even though I have a high school diploma.

Maybe it's my looks why I'm getting turned down? Does the way a person looks and dresses matter when getting a job?

I've never even had a call back after an interview.

Yes looks do matter when applying for jobs.

You should always dress to impress when you go to a job interview. Appearance is everything. Make sure you're clean shaving and have a hair cut and if at an office you should come in wearing a suit.

Always look your best and look like you're serious about getting the job.
