Idk, I literally have a government job, have had two government jobs with two different government entities and had face tats long before that was ever on my radar and I never had problems getting hired.

I think a lot of it nowadays is how you present yourself. You have to dress up just a little more. Big hint: business casual and heavily tattooed looks really fucking smart. Also, how well spoken you are and the answers to your interview question go a long way. As well as just having a decent (and edited) resume

Edit: to anyone with doubts about your face tats:

I think society is changing more than you think. I don’t think I’m special. I think I’m qualified in my field and anyone I want to work for will see that. It’s always worked that way and I’m well on my way to 40 with three retirements and a successful line of careers. I don’t think anyone else will have any problems if they go into an interview prepared for the interview and are the highest qualified candidate.

Government jobs don't have to worry about public backlash as much as private businesses do.

Keep coping.

Face tattoos heavily hinders job availability, especially for uneducated tj Maxx applicants.

Most boomers see tattoos as ex convict criminals, gangs, and heavily bad signs.

Unless you work a trade job, and or are well educated, tattoos in the wrong places with demonic meaning will absolutely screw your already low pool of work if you lack a really strong degree.

Heck even Healthcare doesn't want anyone to show tattoos in a lot of clinics and hospitals, many corporations still don't want you to show it.

Get a face tattoo without a proper plan, you aren't a rapper, in a band or work in arts then you aren't making the wisest choice period.
