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 me luck, think I'm talented, blah blah blah. I sent back a response asking why I was rejected, hopefully they give me more than some lame, stock response. At least I have some other interviews lined up next week. But in the future, do you think it would be inappropriate if, when asked to do an initial phone interview, I requested that I do it in person, explain that I have a stutter and do poorly on the phone, etc? Of course I'm not going to be interviewing for any telemarketing or call center jobs (but in my experience in past jobs I actually stutter the least when I'm at work). My stutter isn't always that noticeable so most of the time I do my best to hide it. When it does happen I just try to power through it, but on the phone that always seems so much harder. I'm able to speak a lot more confidently when I can make eye contact. When it's just a voice on the other end of the line I don't have that advantage. Of course I really don't want to have to explain all of this personal nonsense during an initial job interview, but I just feel like I've been through so many failed ones that I'm at wit's end.
