After sending out over a thousand job applications these past 12 months and going through 14 interviews, making it to the final round for almost half of them but getting rejected, I just received more disappointing news. A really promising opportunity that started back in May, complete with a great interview and a great referral from a friend, has been put on hold. I completed a skills test (which I thought went really well) and was told I was selected for the next round where I was going to meet the full team in person, but after checking in today (after 3 weeks of ghosting me) I learned they are reevaluating the role and won't be moving forward right now. Not even a "we'll be in touch,” just a standard goodbye and good luck.

Ugh. I really need to stay positive but honestly I’m falling apart at this point.
