This morning, I went for a job interview for the position of a customer care representative. I stammer actually and I knew it was likely I wouldn't get the job. I met with their HR and we had conversation and during the conversation he asked if I was a stammerer and I answered in the affirmative, then he told me that I can't work as a customer care representative in their company due to my deficiency. I jus waka jeje comot there.

He was right. You could not have been employed for that role cos you would disrupt communication flow between you and the customer.

Vocal impairment issue is taken seriously when you are working in a call center. Your grammatical expression, and dialect is also taken into consideration. You cant afford to even have a local intonation present in your grammatical expressions when speaking english. So sorry bro

He was just generous with the truth, you don't need to pick offen6, you would have use that opportunity to appreciate his sincerity, ask for his contact and asked if there is other position you can fit into, this is January and there are usually more opening than other months.

Find out the origin of your stuttering, was it due to nervousness or its how its always been.

Customer care need good pleasant voice if you re to be on phone, if you deal physically with customers then in addition to a pleasant voice you need good appearance too. If you re going for any customer service interview need to work on these 2 attributes.

Well customer care requires clear communication. Sometimes, speaking into the telephone to offer the customer care support.
And the other person must understand you 100% otherwise the matter fit explode reach another level.
If you have a speech defect, you can either manage it or try to cure it.

I also stammer. I have lost opportunities down the years because of it but one thing I did right was to learn from it.

I started developing my skills, reading books and gaining knowledge now if I want to speak, you must listen to me no matter how long it takes because I speak wisdom and sense.

My career in software development didn't require me to talk much. In as much as I head and participate in meetings, it is no longer an issue to me.

Teach me software development na
I’m also a stammer,

This is a stupid fallacy. I stammer but I am not hot-tempered. I know a lot of stammerers who aren't hot-tempered. Who even started this talk that stammerers are hot-tempered?

You can practice your way out of stuttering. There are past and current leaders that stutter. The list includes British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, orator Demosthenes, King George VI, actor James Earl Jones, US President Joe Biden, and country singer Mel Tillis.

Nigeria is the worst place in the world for people with any form of physical challenges to survive or get help...they make fun of you as if it's your fault
.,,..

So anytime I know about an hitherto able bodied fool get disfigured, I don't hesitate in mocking them back and even double it especially if the person is known for such despicable behavior! Nigerian and shitty Backwards behavior! Left to the animals called Africans, they won't be a text message app on phone at all to cater for people with hearing impairment! Thank God for the white who thinks and considers everything, even though they know black African are mostly pure animals who unfortunately resembles sane human! No matter how you look at history, those white were right in taking African slave if you consider black cruelty, evilness and inhumanity to each other.. Just move on bro, I pray one of the bastardz employer family turn or born an incurable stutterer too angry

I think you need a job that doesn't require much talking.

I can feel your pain, but stammerer it difficult to explain themselves when they are angry..

Get IT skill and become a programmer, graphic designer, web designer etc


So sorry bro
