    Depends on the other applicants, but if the job is in any way customer service related (in person), I'll go with "probably not".

    Yea a warehouse will probably hire you because you'll be working with a small group of people or alone depending on the job. If you have to work with customers on the other hand it's not happening.

    He might've, but then you said stinked instead of stunk and your chances vanished.

    You have to eat after you brush your teeth or more bacteria will rebuild itself. Let the probacteria take care of that.
    Also eat cinnamon peppermints
    Chew cinnamon gum
    Brush your teeth twice a day

    Doesn't gum have aspartame in it?

    Tic tacs and lots of Breath Assure. Or go to the doctor and get it checked out likely both.

    If the last thing a recruiter remarked about you was your unpleasant smell, then the answer is likely "NO". Unless you'll be working somewhere where noone gives a shit, like a factory floor or in the oil fields. But even there, if the impression you left the recruiter with was "this guy smells bad", you probably won't get hired anyway.
    Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.

    Just, be kind.

    Not a chance unless they are completely desperate. You not only made a negative impression on the recruiter, but strong enough that they felt like voicing the reason to you, instead of silently casting you aside after you've already left.

    if the smell is that bad that the recruiter tells you, and not just politely ignores it, i think your chances are very slim.

    Hold on, let me get my magic 8-ball...

    How the hell should I know?

    Wouldn't hurt to take better care of your oral hygiene, though.

    This.

    Also, I'd probably be trying to find the cause of the bad breath and do something about it. If it's bad enough to cost you a job, it's something that's worth fixing. I'm sure there's a lot of stuff that can cause bad breath, but bad oral hygiene habits are probably the easiest to correct. In general, if you just floss/brush/rinse a couple times a day, you're good on that unless you have other problems going on.
