Fortune favors the bold. It's not that he has extra rights or privilege, it's that he _made extra effort_. He took the initiative and went the extra mile. Applying online is easy, perhaps he did that as well, but showing up in person is really recognizable and obviously took him extra time and work. Now, on the flipside, he could be seen as absolutely wasting a busy person's time by not going through the proper channels, thereby destroying his chance of getting the job. That's the risk of being bold, but they also say, nothing risked, nothing gained.
