Does the interviewer make a note of all the mistakes that you commit while you talk during an interview.
Thanks

Hi

The interviewer does not specifically take note of each and every mistake that you commit but tries to gauge you as a candidate by your confidence and presence of mind.

It also depends on what kind of mistakes are you commiting. If the interviewer finds you jittery and catches you making contradictary statements, he/she will keep that in mind while making the decision.

If mistakes happen while quoting a general incident or fact/figure, it is acceptable, but if it is a deliberate attempt to hide/disguise certain issues, it will be taken note of.
