How do I overcome the feeling of messing up in an interview?
If you make a mistake in a job interview, the best thing you can do is let it go and move on. If you highlight that mistake by trying to fix it or explain it, you'll most likely make a bigger deal out of it then what it would have otherwise been. Your interviewer might not have even noticed.
So if you make a mistake, just brush it off, move on and say to yourself, “Oops, I made a mistake.” Then move forward with the interview and do the best you can to prove what makes you a great fit for the job. Focus on continuing to create value throughout the entire interview whatever happens.
