Mock call nervousness

How do you overcome mock call nerves? I can hit it out of the park in a real call and exhibit confidence. Any time I'm interviewing and come across a mock call I bomb it. Any tips/recommendations will be greatly appreciated. My panel interview is tomorrow.

Take a breath and remember they can't hurt you.

Unless it's Paddy. He can most definitely hurt you.

I take it you are turning down both of the offers in your previous post? Here are some good threads.

No, those are still on the table. Im finishing up the final round at this third company before I sit down to make my final decision. Any recommendations to get over the nerves specifically?

Try to be as silly and pointless as mock calls are themselves

Mock calls and role play can be the most nerve wracking of all. But - if you’re great with customers, as you said you are, then this should be easy. Relax and try to enjoy it, as you would with a real prospect. They just want to talk and see how you come across on the phone.

Update: Mock call went great! Drank a bottle of wine. It worked.
