Since I don't want to dox myself, I won't say much, but PM me if you want more details. I have a business-related degree and a (not sales-related) business-related job. It took me more than a year after I graduated to be hired in a professional level job and clearly my stutter explains why it took that long. I stayed with this employer for around seven years and was promoted twice, however I have been looking for a new job at least for the last two years and I just recently got hired somewhere else. Of course, this time I was more picky and less desperate, but once again my stutter explains why it took so long. All you can do is keep applying until a prospective employer doesn't get turned off by your stutter and hire you. It's the law of large numbers, it's bound to happen some day. Once you get hired, you should make the most of it: network, learn as much as you can and show you're a reliable employee, it would help with the next job hunt (which will be easier, if only because you'll be already employed). I know it's unfortunate we have to put more work to get less interesting jobs, but life isn't fair. Still, with this so-called labor shortage, I suppose we have it easier than previous generations.
