Keep going, you got this! I just landed a job (to be fair, the position is a speech language pathologist so my interviewers are familiar with stuttering) and I think that starting my interviews by telling the interviewer I stutter really helped. If you don’t do this already, try coming up with a short and succinct script you can say after introductions. Something like “Before we proceed, I wanted to make you aware that I am a person who stutters so you may hear me repeat some words or sound. Please feel free to ask me to repeat anything if need be” may leave a good impression on the interviewer, depending on the person. Keep on trying!
