I messed up in an interview

I completed a HireVue interview for GS and 1 of the questions was describe urself using 3 adjectives, I said: dreamer, doer, achiever. I am just now realizing that in reality none of three words are adjectives, do you think this will hurt my chances?

"He is a dreamer."

"He is a doer."

"He is an achiever."

These are phrases where the words are used as adjectives. I'd be more concerned if you tried to backtrack during the interview bro

 

I don't know why this is so funny, but thinking about it seriously, I don't think they'll even notice you didn't use adjectives. It'll depend on how well-spoken your answer was, not on the grammatical nuances.

 

Who gives a shit? It’s over and done. Nothing you can do besides wait and see if they contact you. No one on here knows...
