Interviewers - would this be a deal breaker?

[YellowEllis]

I just had a Zoom job interview, I think it went well. I'd researched the right things and could answer all their questions, my experience matches the role perfectly, I think I'm a strong candidate - but on the second question they asked me I accidentally lent on the mouse and minimised everything. It took me 20 secs to get it back and get myself together and in that time I said "oh um sorry, ah" and looked like a bit of a bumbling idiot and got anxious. I got it together and was fine for the rest of the interview. I'm just kicking myself for not explaining what I'd done, as they probably thought I was clicking off screen to check the answer or that I just couldn't think of an answer rather than I'd shrunk the screen.

Would that put you off someone? Or do I still stand a chance because the rest of the interview went well?

Op did you hear from the interviewer? I had a similar situation and was just wondering what happened with you?

I didn't get it. I asked for feedback and they said I interviewed really well and it was very close. Obviously not close enough! I'm gutted! Hope you have more luck than I did.

Oh I'm really sorry :(

Sorry to hear that OP. It looks like it same here 😖

Sorry to hear that, it must be hard to be looking for a new job atm.

Had another interview today, for a different job, more senior than this last one I didn't get. I just don't get better at interviews! I completely misunderstood one of their questions and rambled on until they had to clarify. I answered properly then but I'm guessing damage was done! I also forgot my words a few times and said something that just didn't make sense. I keep messing opportunities up by being nervous!
