hello im new just joined up and i have my test and interview day tomorrow but i was just wondering what they will say bout a tattoo i have on the side of my neck its small and consists of three stars?

if it is a problem and i do get offered a job i am 100000000% willing to get it removed which can be done in one siting due to the size and the fact its not coloured or shaded

but will it be acceptable to take the tests etc or will i get turned away as soon as i arrive ?

Specific TOCs will have different rules on it, so depends on what company you have applied for. As long as it can be covered up it shouldn't be that much of a problem.

CrossCountry I don't thank have much problem with it, I once had a guard that had a pretty large and elaborate tattoo on his forearm. Of course I suppose it's possible he hid it during interview...

If you tell us what TOC exactly your looking at then I'm sure someone will know the details on that TOC's policy.

I'd be surprised if they did reject you on the grounds of a tattoo.

I've only ever known London Midland to be fussy about facial piercings, and nothing about tattoos.
