Medical field. No beards generally. I know some doctors and nurses that have some facial hair, but not real beards, and I think the facial hair in general is frowned on. It's not very sanitary from hospital perspective

Well here's the thing.
Nobody will interview you and say "man if he only had a beard id hire him"
Somebody might say "damn he's a good fit but he looks like rugaroo"
Just shave. You can grow it back if the job allows.
False, if you claim to speak Arabic, and you don't have a beard you ain't translating shite, def not an operator.

Had the exact opposite happen. Fresh out of school, I had a ton of interviews. Couldn't land a thing. Grades weren't amazing but not bad by any means. I had decent experience interning and a solid resume. Grew some facial hair and was offered a job on 2 of the next 3 interviews I went on. It probably had nothing to do with it but figured I'd throw that out there rather than making a spin off thread about how I think facial hair helped me land a job.

Most people won't care. But the ones that do will think twice before hiring you. Shaved mine. I'm in sales so I love money green more than I loved my facial hair.
