I feel that. I was interviewing for a job about 6 - 8 months ago. It was for a position that I know I was pretty qualified for. I went through several interviews with them and I had a really good feel...

I just said that because the job market is terrible. I know many people that don’t have disabilities can’t even find jobs....

I agree. when it stops you from getting jobs and having basic conversations, there's no way you can accept it. we don't get disability for it so it does affect us our livelyhoods....

This can be play against you. Im an entrepreneur but im full of people everyday: Lots of family, customers, people working for me, school Dads, School Moms...im always surrounded by people. So im sti...

I think it’s worth it. I’ve been told by a few different hiring managers that it is, as well (friends, not people I was interviewing with) — especially for phone interviews....

Totally agree; we should have more options. Anyone with a disability should! So sorry you lost your job. That seems like a total overstep by them asking for that information, too. I'm roughly 10 yea...

Your advice is solid. I agree with you, that is the best way to find a job with our condition. The only problem I have with that is we are cornered to do so. We should have more options. The confide...

I’m going through interviews right now as well, and I 100% let the interviewer know. It helps me speak a little more fluently, personally. Would you want to work somewhere that doesn’t accept you fo...

I am in your same boat, keep on fighting and eventually you will find one. Once on the same day I had two interviews both at Albertsons but different locations. The first interview my stuttering was...

That’s not so simple to do and is very expensive. At times you need a job just to survive. Yes I agree with your sentiment to embrace your stutter. I am currently thinking hard about changing my pro...

Didn't mean to come across in a judgy type of way in my initial response. For me, being passionate about a job let me talk about it easier in interviews. I was more knowledgeable about the topic and j...

Exactly, I feel like in order to get proper respect I would have to work on my own. A job where you do not have to rely on the judgement of others. I have always been obsessed with trying to find a ...

I understand what you mean. However, It doesn’t work out for everyone, in fact most of us. Perhaps there are a lot of differences in your life than in some of ours. I am happy it worked out for you. Y...

Our instincts can lie to us but as a social species we should trust them. Why wouldn’t it be his stutter? Stuttering is associated with only negative traits by the public at large. I’ve been told to m...

Bombed the interview

Bombed the interview Just bombed the interview due to numerous stuttering. I didn’t do this but in the future, do you think it’s worth mentioning that I would stutter at the beginning of the interview...

I admit it while introducing myself, their responses are always welcoming, one interviewer had said, ilas long as you can code, this doesn't matter...

What you’re feeling is completely valid. Stammering can feel so isolating, especially when it impacts something as big as your confidence in interviews or conversations. It’s not about your abilities,...

Brother we have the same condition......I too am jobless after my graduation just because I couldn't talk in my interviews properly and my stammering has caused me to be an extreme introvert because w...

It gets better as you (and the people around you) age and mature. College and my adult life I can many count one one hand the number of times I’ve been mocked. Adults don’t care about your stutter and...

Jai Shree Ram bhai! I’m also a fellow stammerer, 22M, and I’ve had it since childhood—so I totally understand what you're going through. Engineering was a tough ride for me too; the past four years fe...
