26m stutterer since forever here, and currently on my last semester. I've been applying all over, and getting interviews for some. All I can say is when they ask you that first question, whatever it may be, start with 'First I want to say I do have a stutter.' If you want to expand you can even say something along the lines of 'Although I have a stutter, it does not have any impact on my professional life or goals.' Anxiety for all interviews are high, especially for people who stutter. Before you go in, take a deep breath and tell yourself 'I'm the baddest motherf\*\*\*\* in here.' Words for me, sometimes anyway. Other than that, just be yourself, do your thing, and keep your head up. You got it.
