Moo! The Musings of a Plaid Cow

The [Evil HR Lady](http://evilhrlady.blogspot.com/) had a post a while back about [facial hair during interviews](http://evilhrlady.blogspot.com/2008/06/hairy-situation.html). The crux of the question is “should you shave it before an interview.

I tend to agree with one of the commenters who said “You don’t want it to distract you or cause you to worry and walk into an interview with less confidence”, but in the opposite direction. This comment agreeing to shave it, but I felt so self conscious without it when I was interviewing, I bombed the first set of interviews out of college. The last interview, I said screw it—I’m not shaving. More confidence == a job offer, and the rest is history.
