Rejected from my dream job
I’ve sent out hundreds of applications the past few months and one of them was at a company I’ve been looking at for years waiting to apply for the right role. Once it popped up I sent it in and actually got an interview - the only interview I’ve had this round looking for a new job. I left the interview really excited and felt extremely confident if move forward to the next round. Unfortunately after two weeks of radio silence they followed up that I wouldn’t be moving forward. I know you shouldn’t hang on to these things but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t super demoralized now. I feel like I’ve been sending job applications into a void. Last time I looked for a new job I was offered an interview at every job I applied for and got an offer at every job I interviewed with. It’s scary how different the market is now.
