Fair enough. I don't want to be mean, but I wonder, if they are the type of person to experience this in interviews, what other situations would set them off in a similar way? It won't be everything, but I'll bet there's some comorbidity; there is a combination of stressors in an interview setting that triggers them, where else can these occur?

From my experience, there is more overlap with people who generally let stress get to them, than people who are solely stressed out by interviews specifically and nothing else.

I have a relative like this. They struggle in interviews due to stress, they also struggle in exams due to stress. That's two things, I don't want to be surprised by the third at a critical and stressful time in my team.
