If you want Cupid’s arrow to hit the mark, sometimes it’s quantity that matters, but how to play the numbers game? According to new research by Tinder you might need a career switch

Social media matchmaking app Tinder has just unveiled the careers that people swipe right most frequently on in each country and the list is surprising. In Australia, forget high-powered master of the universe CEO-type roles, the top 10 for men and women include service professions like flight attendant, waiter, swimming coach and hairstylist. Interestingly flight attendant ranks very highly on a bunch of other countries lists including Mexico, Korea, Japan and Chile. Which says a ton about what people in those countries (including us Aussie's) are looking for on Tinder - someone who won't be sticking around long enough for more than a casual fling. And here we were under the delusion that Tinder was the long-term love connection.

On with the list, the five careers swiped most often in Australia on Tinder are as follows:

Men
#1 Flight attendant
#2 Marketing coordinator
#3 Waiter
#4 Painter
#5 Nurse

Women
#1 Swimming coach
#2 Student
#3 Cabin crew member
#4 Law clerk
#5 Social media manager

For the sake of love (or lust) is it time to channel your inner Frank Abagnale and get "creative" with your Tinder profile?
