So I realised that I misspelled the firm's name in the cover letter (in the header, nothing weird just inverted 2 letters), however I spelled it correctly twice in the content of the letter.
I also scored "higher than average" in their online tests, and am a good fit for the role according to their requirements.
Am I fucked?
NB: I applied in Europe, if that changes anything to the error acceptance...
