Is a piercing an automatic disqualifier for men?

I have a single, small, silver ring pierced into my upper left ear. Most people don’t notice it. When finance (but more so consulting) firms roll around to campus, they love to play the we’re so progressive/diverse/just like you card but I can’t help but feel like there’s a bit of a conservative good ol’ boys club at the higher levels. Will this affect my job prospects? Be honest.

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee
 

Just say you are gay. You might as well be with a pierced ear as a guy.
