Dressing for Career Success (and what NOT to wear)

Dressing for Career Success (and what NOT to wear) I as of late remarked on the What Would Dad Say (jobdig) site where GL Hoffman composed the fascinating post, Someone should Say it, so it should be me. The post was about Megan Joy from American Idol. GL thinks about whether she was booted off in light of her singing, or as a result of her arm tattoos. Obviously I needed to answer to that. What was she thinking? She is a delightful young lady, however has this tattoo runs the whole length of her arm. If not a vocation in music, who on the planet would employ her? Dont misunderstand me. I figure some body workmanship can be extremely delightful. Ive seen a few tattoos that have wowed me. I recall when I was around 20, my better half and I needed to get tattoos (this was before extremely popular, mind you, so we thought we were insane radicals!). We had quite recently parted ways with our beaus and needed to praise our freedom, I presume. Cant recall the specific explanation presently, then again, actually we needed to get one. (Youthful, senseless and free). At the point when I told my liberal mother this, she stated: Well, as long as you can live with it when you are 80 and it is droopy and blurred, proceed. Furthermore, dont overlook, on the off chance that you ever plan on finding a new line of work in reality, managers will oppress you. The last part truly hit home. All things considered, the two sections did, yet I realized that when I was finished with school I would need to go out and find a genuine line of work and didnt need to wreck my odds by getting a tattoo where an imminent manager may see it. Regardless of whether we let it out or not, covering oneself with tattoos/piercings/body craftsmanship DOES influence our odds of being employed. I realize I am most likely irritated a few people understanding this, yet its actual. I realize that any of my official customers would mull over recruiting somebody with tattoos slithering up the neck or one of those colossal ear things in their ears. I dont regularly consider myself intolerant, yet I know with regards to fitting dress in the working environment, we should be as expert as could be expected under the circumstances. Valid, a few organizations grasp or bolster body workmanship, yet most dont. Organizations endeavor to keep up an expert front, so employing somebody with a stud through their tongue or in an eyebrow conflicts with everything the organization is attempting to do. Remember when choosing your next tattoo that you may wind up NOT working at the particular employment you need on account of your appearance.
