2 horns and halo effect
«Эффект рогов и нимба». Это выражение отражает привычку оценивать человека по его внешнему виду, а не по его деловым качествам и характеристикам. Намёк на характерные внешние признаки дьявола и ангела (рога и нимб). John relies on the horns and halo effect to see him successfully through an interview. When potential employers look at his actual achievements — well, that's another story altogether. — Джон всегда надеется на первое впечатление во время собеседования. Когда потенциальные работодатели начинают изучать его реальные достижения — это совсем другая история.English-Russian dictionary of expressions > horns and halo effect
