Interviewers are humans too. And sometimes something happens which makes you, the interviewer, get very self-conscious during the interview. When this happens, it becomes very difficult to be present with your interviewee, hold the container, and ask the right questions!


In this interview, I tell a story about one such interview where this happened to me during an interview with two managing partners of a massive company! I explore why it happened, what I did poorly, what I did well, what I did to salvage what I could of the rest of the interview, and what I learned from the experience!
