Starbucks interview thursday?

Interview with the Pharmacy Director on Thursday! What to do about my eyebrow piercing!?

• So I have an interview with the Pharmacy Director of my local hospital on Thursday. I don't think that I have a good shot at getting this job because they're asking for 1-3 years experience and I only have 6 months. They also want someone with an Associates degree and I don't have that either, but I am currently working towards one. Anyway, the Pharmacy Director wants to interview me on Thursday. I would like to get this job, but if I don't, I won't be crushed. Anyway, I have no idea what sort of dress code they have their. I have an eyebrow piercing that I would rather not take out for the interview. If I am offered the job and need to take it out, I will. I just don't want to take it out, have the interview, have my piercing close up, and then I am never offered the job. I have put a retainer in my piercing before for other interviews but I don't think it makes it look less noticeable. Would it be completely terrible to go to the interview with my jewelry in my eyebrow piercing? I have side bangs that do cover it somewhat, but you can still see the piercing.

• Answer:

  TAKE IT OUT. If you are already not meeting the qualifications this would be an additional strike against you. Piercings trap a lot of bacteria and germs and are particularly frowned upon in health care/hospitals. Getting asked to interview without meeting the qualifications is an honor . Ultimately, the decision is yours. Is it time to grow up and take the interview seriously or lose your chance over a piercing.
