While you might be aware that things like topless selfies and gratuitous animal photos are a no no in the dating app world, you might not know that your job can have an impact on whether someone swipes left or right.
The world’s largest dating app, Badoo, recently took a look at this, and revealed the most right-swiped jobs for both men and women.
The results were compiled by surveying 5,000 people between the age of 18 and 30 and Badoo’s findings were surprising.

The most right-swiped job for a man was a chef, while for women the most popular with Badoo’s users was a hairdresser.
Rather than men in uniform and women who are supermodels, the majority of the most right-swiped jobs were not the stereotypical careers you might expect.
After chef, the most popular jobs for men on the app were engineer, entrepreneur, marketing and artist.
Entrepreneur also got a look-in in the female section, coming in as the fourth most right-swiped job.
After hairdresser, the most popular careers for women hoping to get a date were nurse, lawyer, entrepreneur and teacher.
If you normally dread the question ‘so what do you do?’ on a first date, it might be time to start feeling a little more proud if you fall into one of these professions.

Of course, it’s worth taking such studies with a pinch of salt.
Previous reports from the likes of Tinder and Match.com in the past have found other jobs – such as a pilot for men and an interior designer for women – are the most likely to get you a match.
The professions in common between Tinder and Badoo included entrepreneur for men, and entrepreneur, teacher and nurse for women.
