OP here, well, I did end up sending a follow-up email asking for an in-person interview, and not too long after that I got an email telling me essentially that they didn't want to see me again, wish m...

I would never say a disclaimer. I actually use it pretty often when the question about adversity or struggle in my life. It's gold!...

Skype therapy group?

Skype therapy group? Just an idea that came to mind. Would a small group of people like to get together once a week or so to practice speaking over the internet? I'll be honest, the idea scares the he...

I envy you! You are about to start the best 4 years of your life. College is a melting pot. Everyone in the dorms gets real friendly with each other. Don't worry too much. Go out to bars, have a good ...

If you've got the blocking type stutter it may make sense to mention it at the beginning of the interview; perhaps something lighthearted yet helpful. I recently had a phone interview where I had t...

I was in the exact same situation as you a few months ago. For the job that I got, all I had was a phone interview. I didn't bring up the stutter until it actually happened. All I said was "Sorry, I h...

Yep, I agree. If anything getting it out in the air will make you feel more comfortable,and thus less likely to stutter more. And honestly, if phone interviews make you nervous, see if you can't do ...

I think opening the conversation with a disclaimer might be a good idea. It's not like your stutter is going to stay a secret, they're going to find out eventually. Probably sooner than later. Openin...

How best to approach potential employers about your stutter? -- do you do it at all?

How best to approach potential employers about your stutter? -- do you do it at all? Hello all, I'm new here and I'm sure this has probably been brought up before, but I'll share anyways. I recently ...

I think it's pretty common knowledge that the vast majority of stutterers grow out of it just before adulthood. So I wouldn't confuse your adolescent hijinks with helping you end your stutter. Stutter...

It seems to be different for everybody. For instance, I can speak in front of very large groups of complete strangers with barely a stutter. I've had friends I've known for a while that never even kne...

Yup, that's basically it. It's not that I find stuttering funny or sexy, so I'm definitely not doing it on purpose. Jesus....

My parents used to always tell me growing up to "speak slowly" and "sound out my words" and it drove me absolutely nuts. If I could have done either of those things I certainly would have! Thankfully ...

Good luck. I can say my first name, but not my last (without considerable difficulty), and it's a very difficult name to pronounce so everybody always asks me to say it for them. Needless to say, this...

That's great. I have some summer job interviews coming up, and I will definitely have this in mind. I've been guilty of being the guy who takes down a few shots before moments like this, and I am sick...

its clearly called "breaking our silence" you can even read it in the thumbnail. c'mon OP at least try...

Good work....

Its worked for me. I felt I'd probably be stuttering in the job interview, and I didn't know what kind of experience the interviewer had had with persons who stutter, so I felt it'd be a good idea to ...
