WTF: As I'm short-listing co-op jobs, I feel like I'm fairly qualified for most of them. But I worry I won't get any of them because I have a speech impediment and I'll blow the interview.

    Oh now, worring about it might just make your interview worse :o

    Do you usually address your impediment during the interviews? Acknowledging it and discussing it shortly (ie I know I have this, I work on it, it won't affect my job performance, etc) will clear the air and won't cause so much anxiety

    Yeah, 9:42 probably has the best advice. Otherwise, your first impression might be a bad one. People formulate first impressions almost instantly, and as soon as you open your mouth they might think you're crap
