Gabby15 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 If you shave, Mellberg will break into your house in the dead of night and murder you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danwichmann Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 No! If they don't like your stubble f*ck 'em! In fact, forget stubble, grow a man's beard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 Thing is, it's only very thin stubble, it's not like i look like i havn't shaved for days or have walked in off the street! im well aware i need to make a good first impression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted May 14, 2008 VT Supporter Share Posted May 14, 2008 If it's only thin stubble then shave it off and it'll grow back within no time. Personally speaking, if I was to interview someone and they hadn't shaved, I would probably think he hasn't made the effort. Might be the wrong opinion to have but then even when I have internal meetings at work, I always shave and wear a tie just out of respect - that includes meetings with people I usually see everyday.

Thats exactly what i dont want, but i just dont suit clean shaven at all and i was thinking they should see me as i am not pretending to be something im not.

trekka Posted May 14, 2008 VT Supporter Share Posted May 14, 2008 Well in that case if you really want the job - have a shave and dress to impress. If not then go wearing your jeans and trainers and don't worry what they think just as long as they don't think you're something you're not. It's a job end of the day - get your priorities right and lose the stubble for 1 day. Just my opinion. What job is it anyway? That could make a big difference.

Doesnt matter if you don't suit it, they shouldn't care if you look a bit odd (if ). Shave clean, it is just more professional, I'm sure they wouldn't mind you having a 5 o clock shadow affair once you've got the job, but you will be marked down if it's a formal job (bank or something).

CastleBromVilla Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I'm sure if you've got what it takes to do the job, they'll not be too worried about a bit of stubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
