I am working on managing interview nerves as I reenter the hiring process. Mock ups and videos are helping me prepare.
Nerves don’t reflect ability, but they happen. How much weight is given to presentation versus substance? Will I have a chance to succeed if I have some hiccups during the process?

I do think most interviewers understand that candidates get nervous. So they allow some grace and leeway for your nerves.

As for me, I feel it is completely normal to feel nervous, and interviewers care more about your skills, few hiccups won’t erase your strengths, especially if you show preparation and resilience.

I have an offer accepted from Elevance 125k (Anthem) and w a good team and seems that WLB would be ok. Also, Amazon hiring manager wants to interview me for a job. Is just a hiring manager int. so obvi nothing guaranteed. Salary if offered will be more than 150k. My question is should I accept the interview and see where it goes? Is it really worth it to proceed with a company like Amazon for 25k+. I live in CA so $ is imp but I do have a toddler so WLB is also imp. Both role are Sr. MGR.
