Job Interview Hello I am a 18 year old man with a severe stutter. I just had a job interview and I stuttered on every word and in every sentence. After all of it I would say there is literally a 0% chance I get the job. I stuttered so bad that it made the interview way longer than it was supposed to be. The interviewer was taking notes while I stuttered and even laughed at me while I stuttered. I feel so defeated. I am disappointed in myself because I practiced so hard and so much to do good for the interview and it resulted in me not being able to even spit a word out. Does anybody have a similar experience? Should I just expect failure and and expect to get laughed at when I have a interview?
