I don’t get it, the interviewer kept the conversation going even after I fucked up. What was the point?

It was really really bad. Like I should’ve known NOT to do this, but it’s almost like I’ve forgotten how to behave professionally.

I had to describe a situation where things didn’t go as planned and when I was describing it, I unconsciously made different gendered voices for the other party. Smh. Yet the interview continued for another 15 minutes so idk. And I was asked to submit work samples.

How fucked?

You'll probably get hired. Stop stressing. Let me know your name and address and I can put in a good word if you'd like. Merry Christmas.

If they asked you for writing samples it's highly likely you're a shoo-in. They've probably assembled the hiring committee over drinks this afternoon to make your case and prepare the paperwork. You're doing great.

They'd be more embarrassed right now to NOT hire you if you embarrassed yourself at the interview. You have to understand that modern American companies are driven by the concept of fremdschamen--embarrassment at another's embarrassment--and will do almost anything to ensure you save face. Don't worry; you've got this on lock.

See what mean? She was already probably squirming in her because of her observation of your comfort. I'd confident that you're going to get this position. You should feel to go out and spend a little on yourself and others this Christmas.

(1) It's rarely quite as bad as you think

(2) The other candidates could screw up even worse

(3) Interviewers are often told to stay on script, lest they give fodder for lawsuit

This was happening to me too while I had my phone interview. It was 40 fucking minutes long.

I haven’t had an in-person interview in years and am terrified of how I will come off.
