So during one of my interviews over zoom my iMessage accidentally went off from my computer. I don’t know how to turn off my iMessage sound on my Mac book. It wasn’t my phone because it was off, but I am a little bit worried that that may have come off as rude. How do you think that will reflect on my interview? I’ve sent a letter of intent to the school already. It’s my top choice. I’m hoping they don’t think badly of me for this.
 
Hahah okay thanks guys 😅 yeah I think that pre December anxiety is hitting.

Not a big deal. However, letters of intents are usually sent if you are waitlisted by the school, not before you've gotten a decision back... Desperation is not a good look.

Oh I mean this school said to send one after our interview if we wanted! Is that bad? I just assumed since they mentioned it.

Seems like u feel very differently than the other replies? Why so?
It wasn’t from my phone. It was my first time using zoom. I didn’t know how to turn it off. I am new to the online interviewing platform. I’m hoping they will cut some slack bc it’s not the same as an in person interview? 🙁
