mid 20's, unemployed and stuttering/stammering Has anyone been affected by their stuttering when having interviews? I have a solid educational background and currently completing grad school in business. I get called in for interviews and i get numb and i stutter the whole time. Mind you, I have been a bank teller so I am comfortable speaking with people.. I don't know how I am going to get past the interview stage without being judged on my lack of communication when interviewing. I have stuttered all my life but being an adult and trying to get the jobs I want in order to build my career is getting tough.. does anyone feel this way ?
