I had a alum chat and I was really nervous and while I asked unique and genius questions and was respectful, I completely blanked for a while when they asked what school I applied to and said IRL instead of ILR. Will this negatively affect me?
Definitely not, if they didn’t ask for clarification, they knew what you meant. Interviewers know how stressful interviews are for students so one little slip up will not matter. Don’t worry about it.
