GASlick:
I agree with RazorX.  I think you'll be fine.  Your beard isn't scraggy and messy.

If you get a chance, drive by the company and wait outside for a few minutes at lunchtime or the end of the workday and see what the employees coming out of the building look like.

This is a good idea.

...suck it up and trim the beard down to a goatee and try to get the job.  Once you're in you can gauge what you can get 'away' with.

Yeah....it's not a big deal either way....it's your call...do what you have to do...yer not sellin' out by cleanin it up a little more than you normally would.

On the extreme side of the spectrum....there are people who are committed to asserting their "maverick" self (not that this is your situation, hickmeister) and have the attitude..."Well if they don't like me for who I am....."

absolutely REJECTING the notion of towing the company line....even a LITTLE bit.....just at the beginning.

They're still hittin the bricks.

'J', how goes the job search.  I was out for two months earlier this year, so I know what a drag it is.

If you're REALLY worried about the beard....

Then shave it so it doesn't undermine your confidence.

It grows back  ;)

This is powerful right here !!

Now...not sure how it would work if you feel most confident going in with double nose piercings and a piece of barb wire connected to your upper lip.

But generally speaking...if the beard issue is causing concern...get rid of the concern so you can be as comfortable and poised as possible.
