Did I bomb my second interview by saying “sorry” repeatedly. I feel like I was a nervous wreck and was rambling all over the place. The first interview with the recruiter went great. Then the second interview with the hiring manager I feel like I fumbled. However he did tell me what the next steps are which would be a super day in person. He said he will reach out to me in a few days to let me know. I still can’t help to feel I did terrible answering the questions by repeating the same thing

You wont know until they get back to you. I've had job interviews where I was perfectly polished and received feedback that I gave answers they didn't like. I've gone into interviews feeling the same where I didn't feel like myself and nervous, but came out with a job offer. If it's meant to happen, it will.

Id just say try to keep the “sorrys” to a minimum. i know several people that use it as a crutch words and it can create An unconscious bias that you’re doing something wrong or mistake prone.
