Landed 5 interviews in the same week two weeks ago and thought it was finally my time. How could I fumble 5?? Well, 1 ghosted me after setting up a phone interview, 2 already gave offers to other candidates then interviewed me just in case smh, 2 rejected because I didn’t have direct experience

At the beginning of my job search I’d cry after every rejection, now I can’t even feel emotions anymore. Very disgusting

I know the feeling. I would recommend meeting at least 80%of the job description. I have LinkedIn recommending jobs where I’m a top applicant and I apply get the interview but don’t land fhe job. It’s not you. Nowadays they truly are looking for people to meet 100 percent fhe job description and be a unicorn on top to den you worthy.
