I know your pain, and I'm truly sorry that happened to you. I live in the U.S. and have also been rejected after admitting I stutter. People say it makes a difference if you admit it, that it helps, but if someone doesn’t want to deal with something they’re afraid of or don’t understand, they won’t. Keep trying and don’t give up. Something will happen for you. I wish I had more uplifting advice, but one of the hardest things we have to deal with is the workforce. Right out of the gate, we’re at a disadvantage, and there are always others with perfect communication skills in line behind you.
