I don't know if seeing you ahead of time is always a good idea. You may get people judging you just based on your looks.
I work in a field that requires a high degree of knowledge of Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering. And people in the field are judging you on your intelligence. I tend to get the same reaction from people who have never talked to me. I don't "look smart" apparently. What I get most people saying is that I look more like a bouncer or personal trainer. (And apparently that means not "looking smart".) But if the first time they see you is when they see you face-to-face, then you have a chance to impress them with what you say and how you answer their questions. (And they can't just dismiss you because of your looks.) See ya -- Charles Iliya Krempeaux, B.Sc. http://ChangeLog.ca/ Motorsport Videos http://TireBiterZ.com/ Vlog Razor...
