Had an interview at this amazing company.. but I got a little nervous and fumbled over my words a few times. Worth mentioning my nerves in the thank you email? am I overthinking?

No! Nerves are expected. You’re probably the only one that noticed this. But regardless, I wouldn’t bring it up. Say thank you so much, excited about next steps. Don’t bring attention to anything you may consider a mess up/fumble, chances are they came out of that meeting thinking you rocked it! Don’t give them a reason to think otherwise.

Don't even sweat it. I've hired lots of people and a little nerves are totally normal (and is rarely even noticed). Nerves just means you want it anyways, so it's just good. :)
Good luck!

Just want to reiterate what everyone has said. You can tell when people are nervous in an interview and I think most decent people will never hold that against you. Don’t worry about it.

Happens at all levels and is expected. They want to see how you overcome it.

If you show promise, capability and solid thinking and are able to communicate it through your work you are golden.

Interview hindsight is the worst place to be. Truth is, sometimes they just need a warm body to fill a seat. Sometimes they don’t.

I have an interview coming up with Church & Dwight. When the recruiter emailed me with 3 interview times I thought he was asking me what time works best. Turns out he was telling me I was scheduled for 3 different interviews for 3 different teams in one day. Has anyone heard of a company doing that or gone through this for an interview? It seems odd to me

Currently I had interview with Capgemini . All rounds were good . I think I have answered all the questions correctly . It seems hiring manager is also interested. Now it has been 4 days , I didn't get any response .
