Should i shave my beard for a job interview?

i have a job interview and i'm not sure if a beard is an asset or a liability during the hiring process

You should shave. Especially if it's an inside/office type job.

At a minimum you should trim it extra short and make sure your face and hair are very well groomed. Then, once you get comfortable working there and are sure they won't mind, you can grow it back out without having to start from scratch and go through the scruffy phase at first.
