I'm only 16 currently but my advise would be to tell the employer straight off that you stutter and explain to them the severity of it etc etc. An understanding employer will give you the time to speak and explain yourself properly, If the employer is impatient and annoyed then I recommend not taking the job (Not on the basis that the stutter itself is holding you back, but that you should be able to be comfortable in a work environment). Personally, whenever I've done interviews, explaining about my stutter has helped me so much and boosted my self confidence a lot because the people I've been interviewed by have been very understanding. I hope this helps! Conin - *Moderator*
