I am in the same boat you are. I have been doing interviews since I am about to be going to college. I know it is illegal for them to discriminate on how we speak, but its easy to say I wasn't qualified. I often think if my stuttering will keep me from getting a job somewhere. However, I don't let that stop me. Instead of spending time trying to keep from stuttering. Use that time to study the qualifications of the job you're applying to and look back over the ones that are important to the job. My first interview I didn't even remember I stuttered I was so caught up in the interview process and thinking about what I was going to say that I didn't stutter a single time during the whole interview. You will be fine, there will be others.
