commentr/StutterDecember 12, 2018

Content

As someone who stutters, and has had many job interviews with job offers, **do not** put that you stutter on your resume. Get the interview, and then begin with by stating that you have a stammer from time to time but that it should not impact your ability to do the job. Good communication goes much further than verbal speech. Being concise, knowing the right words to say, and how people can perceive these statements go further with a stutter than those that are imprecise, use the wrong words, and don't care how people perceive those messages. Also, don't forget that written goes a long way! If you can agree with what I just said about yourself, feel free to put on there that you have good communication skills.
