I was in the 4th round of interviews and all was going well, then my lord, I flailed miserably in the panel interview. The Hiring manager really liked what I had to offer. Is there any way to save or try to save the role. Contact the hiring manager, or other suggestions and what to say ?

    I had exactly this scenario happen to me years ago. I’d done well up until the panel interview, which was at the end of the day. My brain was fried at that point, and like you, I flailed miserably. I contacted the recruiter (my POC for that hiring process) and was transparent with her, letting her know that I knew I’d bombed that part of the interview. They appreciated my self-awareness and offered me the job—I was there for 8 years.
