Interview, AM I SCREWED?

<p>SO, my interviewer told me to call him back. and he didn't pick up so i left a message. i accidentally called him a different name, but then i quickly realized and called him the right name.</p>

<p>do i have like absolutely no chance now, even though i didn't have any before?</p>

<p>He’ll probably find it offensive. How that would affect his evaluation of you is entirely dependent on how professional he is.</p>

<p>Don’t worry! A) There is nothing you can do about it now (you can’t change the message); B) no school would base your chances of getting in entirely on a verbal slip-up, or even if that did negatively impact his overall perception (which I doubt), an interview report. Seriously, there are way more important things to stress over.</p>

<p>All that, and you’ll have plenty of opportunity to make a much better impression when you have the actual interview :slight_smile: Best of luck</p>

<p>How did you correct yourself on the phone?</p>

<p>Example 1: John–oops, Tom
Example 2: John–S*** my bad, Tom
Example 3: John–Oh Em Gee, my bad dude, Tom
Example 4: John–Oh F**, Tom</p>

<p>Just wondering…</p>

<p>^lol…!!!</p>

<p>People stress far too much about silly little things here. You just made a tiny slip of the tongue/mind. Forget it, maybe mention it in the interview and apologise but honestly, it will make no difference.</p>

<p>I’m not sure if this is serious or not. ■■■■■■■■ is sometimes hard to detect here…</p>

<p>i think the class on '15 should spend all their 4 years of college on finding a fool-proof system to detect ■■■■■■ on CC. whatchu guys thinkin?</p>
