I had an interview last week and I feel I didn’t do as great as I could have. Days before my period and the mental fog totally got me and found myself unable to answer questions completely and provide solid examples. Anything I can do to save the day? I’m very competent and a great fit for the role.

If you’ve already reached out to them and they haven’t gotten back to you, there’s probably not much you can do. If they call, give you a second interview then you can showcase your strengths. But I wouldn’t out of the blue reach out to them again.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. I think the interview is only one part of the full picture. As long as you were polite, responsive, and followed up respectfully, I think that's all you can do. We all have those days where we wish we could've done better, but just learn for the future.

great advice

I know the feeling. Don't be too hard on yourself and don't stress until you actually hear back. I've thought I did terribly on interviews only to land the role.
