Answer
The writer has been in America approximately 10 times and is well aware of the situation there. Many individuals who have been turned down for having long beards, by the grace of Allah, were given better employment with their beards.
Adhere to the Sunnah and place your trust in Allah.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
