Job Interviews Let me start by saying, I try not to be one to throw pity parties for myself or encourage others to do that. But man, job interviews have really got me down and feeling shit about myself. You go in worrying about stuttering in front of these people you know are specifically there to judge you. Then they ask hypothetical questions and you're already nervous. It feels almost impossible to think out good answers on your feet when you're a nervous wreck. So not only am I stuttering and hard silent blocking, but also giving them half baked answers. I will be absolutely shocked if I got the job, hell I wouldn't hire me after that hot mess of an interview. ​
