In addition to this we have also told our interviewer that if he thinks of any other questions during the interview that he thinks would be appropriate to ask, that he doesn't need to follow the questions exactly and he should ask them if possible and appropriate.

Additional Questions - Jamie Ellis, Candidate Number 9150

10) Could you please describe to us, what the sensation of getting a tattoo is like? is it painful? or is there a form of pleasure in them?

11) Do you design your own tattoos? or do you tell the stylist what the reason is behind your choice and allow his professional experience to draft up an idea?

12) If you design your own, do you typically stick to a certain style of artwork? i.e. gothic? cheerful? fantasy? Steampunk? or do you not have a preference?

13) When you decide upon a tattoo, is there always a definitive trigger? has there ever been a moment where you've just thought to yourself "I'm going to get a tattoo of this moment"?

14) Now, obviously you having tattoos, you have no objection to them, but would you be able to tell us your own views on tattoos. Should people get them? Should they only get them with a good reason? Or do you encourage anyone to get a tattoo? really this question is all about getting the views and opinions of somebody who has a tattoo, on the subject of tattoos.
