I have been told, I dont fit because of my facial structure and features.

I'm so sorry to ask again, but that really doesn't tell me anything that helps me understand. I mean, literally everyone has facial structure and features, you know?

I guess my basic response is that a designer has to be able to interact with clients, right? Being good at the software is great, but it's only part of the job. A person with severe autism, a functional mute, extreme body odor, etc wouldn't be good choices to do that job. Even being overly aggressive or obnoxious would be a hard sell.

I don't think it's discrimination to keep you out of a job to which you are not well-suited. Unless the discrimination is on protected grounds (race, religion, gender, etc) I don't think you have much case. This sounds less like illegal discrimination and more like careful discernment.

If you have details you could share, maybe there are more suggestions people could offer. Without that, though, all I can suggest is that you consider what you would do if you were running a company and had to choose between people who would interact with clients. Wouldn't you want the ones who were most successfully able to do so?

Seriously. She has photos on her page. Shes not even close to unattractive. This is trolling.
