Yeah I gotta side with 216 here. When youre working youre working for that company. Everything you do represents them directly. You're not going to go meet a big client with piercings/face tats/bride of frankenstein hair in the same way you wouldnt meet them with sweat pants and a t shirt on. Presentation does matter. Thinking otherwise is strange to me. Especially talking about job interviews. That's literally all about presenting yourself in a way to get yourself hired.
Im not saying that that people with tats or whatever are automatically worse candidates (they might have all the credentials for a certain job) but if youre going into a big wig interview with a rainbow mohawk thinking that you arent putting yourself at a disadvantage off the get go then maybe you arent smart enough for that job in the first place.
