get the tat. Just wear a long sleeve shirt. And then after they hire you dont worry about it unless theres a dress code or they say anything to you.

on a serious note, everyone I know has tattoos, and they never get called out about them...and they all have alot of them, full sleves...

Well, here's my logic:
An office shouldn't have a problem with a tattoo.
But, the only tattoo you should be getting on a forearm is an anchor.Now, if they were to see this, they just might get a little wierded out and wonder if you were in the navy, or were a Seabee, perhaps.
I think they would be unsure of just what your background was, and they would probably not hire you.
Thus, no tattoo for you.

i have sleeves to my elbows and a small tattoo on my right wrist. I usually intervew in 3/4 sleeve shirts. they can see the tattoo on my wrist, but for the most part i dont get nervous about it because
a) i dont ever want to work in a place with a dress code
b) a company will like you for how good your work is
i work in a high end fashion ad agency, where most of the women are top notch hot fashion looking styles, I am always myself, true to my work and come in here looking like a bike messenger everyday. If you plan on working somewhere for a while, its hard living a lie, about your work ethic, design style, or your tattoos, I say be yourself with some discretion at the interview, and then dont be afraid to be yourself completely as you feel out your new job!
