Dropping in on small operators ?

What are people’s views on ‘dropping’ in on operators to look for work, especially in the UK ?

I’ve heard some views that it’s the best way to make yourself stand out from all the other CV’s whilst others have said it’s a sure way to get yourself to the bottom of the pile (or removed from the pile all together)

As a fresh IR/MEP holder I’m not talking about approaching a company expecting to fly their shiny new Gulfstream but what about companies operating small twins to conduct surveys, move mail about etc.

I’m talking about popping into reception and asking to talk to someone, ideally the boss, about opportunities and requirements as opposed to pouncing on him as he pulls into the car park.
