Job Interview Questions: Does a tattoo affect your job or job interview?

I am trying to or thinking about getting a my right arm sleeve tatted. But what worries me is, do you think this will affect my career in the long run? For the next 8 years im going to be attending med school to become a orthodontist / dentist. It's a little silly, but I am worried that my tattoo might affect the decisions to hire me. Am i just being paranoid? Opinions, Answers, or Experience would help thanks guys.

What to Do Before, During and After a Job Interview



Recommended Answer:
Even though tattoos are becoming more and more common, there are still places where it is taboo. I don't think you are being paranoid, I do believe it would effect your hiring status. Many places want a professional looking person working for them and tattoos and body piercings may offend others. Many places would require you to cover up your tat and remove certain piercing if you were to work for them.

Best Job Interview Tip - You're The STAR


  • It depends what's in the tattoo, how visible it is, and if its offensive.

    As long as your clients don't see it, and if they do it isn't offensive whatsoever, it should be fine.

    You might want to look into it further by doing some research though. xx
