    Umm.
    Please dont be rude :( I know its not good but still I wanted to know viewpoints of others :(
    One shouldn't attach value with it. It isnt good or bad but personal choice
  • Hi everyone,

    This question dawned upon me all of a sudden, I remember someone telling me that people with tattoos and piercings are not allowed in the interview. Is that so?

    Please enlighten me on this.
    The question you should be asking yourself is, whether the common man will have faith in your capabilities as a civil servant, if you attend to their problems in your office, with piercings and tattoos. Trust me, they won't.

    Yes you are right people wont. :(
    Unfortunately, people might judge you on the basis of all this. :(
    Infact if I had an encounter with an IAS who has tattoos and weird piercings, I would boil down to this , that he ain't serious, he might be exceptionally talented but that wont be considered.
    Yay! I got my answer..
    Thank you choooooo mucccchhh everyone :D

    Just answer my question first.Then i will answer yours.

    Can you give interview in swim wears?

    If you say no ,then why no, because if one can swim freely in swim wears then why cannot one give interview freely.

    If you say yes we can give interview in swimwear,then i say yes ,you can show your tattoos to interview panel.Who is stopping you,its your tattoo ,its there to show off.

    I hope you understand what i want to say.
  • :-O
    How can people relate getting inked or having piercing for that matter to someone's values :-O
    Get over your parochial mindset who so ever think so L-)

    For your kind information sir, i am a doctor and that too with "TATTOOS"
    And yeah, during job time, patients trusted me, my seniors including my head of the department did not judged me just because i have tattoos. I was the most sincere medico of that department. So please come out of this narrow mindset.
  • Its not about values but more about a certain style suited for a formal interview .
