Links AC but the dates available clash with my 2 other ACs next week so off to emailing grad rec i go...

ngl their recent activity is just them dishing out thumbs up reactions to every firm posted. I'm surprised they've not said they have a freshfields DTC AC that would really get the forum bubbling

When I get nervous in interviews, I keep speaking as normal, but my voice becomes really high-pitched and I sound like I have noooooo conviction when the content is objectively excellent. I want to stand out by being really positive and enthusiastic because most candidates let their nerves show, but I find it hard to strike a balance – I end up sounding either like a kid who just visited the Willy Wonka chocolate factory and ate a helium balloon or like a dictator, there’s no in between😭 If anyone has experienced this what remedies would you have?

Hi I personally do this unvoluntarily and usually having a glass of water and actually drinking from it helps me take a break, calm my nerves and start my next sentence with my normal voice. Definitely changed voice betwen saying hello to my interviewers and drinking water but did not seem to be an issue .
