I have a job interview tomorrow for a healthcare assistant, but its not in a hospital or in a ward etc, its assisting a school nurse who goes around different primary schools.
I have the bottom left side of my lip pierced and I just wear a small stud in it, should i take it out for the interview or not? In one way I dont want to because thats me, i wear it all the time, and I think piercings are more commonplace these days. Its not all that noticeable. But does it look unprofessional?
Opinions would be good. :]

I would say take it out for the interview to give a good impression, and then if you get the job, you should have guidelines regarding your uniform (including jewellery rules), if there isnt any then ask. You could even ask at the interview if you feel brave enough.
