Yes, I am at my role but would love to find another one. I am trying to look for one rn. I was really nervous the first time but then I did some mock interviews with people I knew and that helped alot. Recently, I had a 2nd round interview at Tesla and almost at the end, the hiring manager asked me Why I wanted to join Tesla and mid way, I just froze. She prolly thought I forgot what I wanted to say or I didn't know but I was completely blocked. Like nothing was working or coming out and then a few seconds later. Finished the answer. She was super nice tho I have seen one thing. I feel somewhat find 1 on 1 but when it becomes like 2 or more. My head starts tripping. Not sure if I should go talk to a psychologist and see what I can do to get rid of being soo scared to talk to people and maybe somethings I can do to practice getting over it
