Four Questions to Recover from Multiple Job Rejections
Reclaiming a new path for yourself is a process. When things get hard, remind yourself of how far you have already come.
Facing a job rejection can take a toll on your well-being. It’s just human. Facing multiple job rejections, one after the other, can be even more painful to manage.
If you have gone through multiple rounds of interviews and made efforts to be the best version of yourself, rejections can get tiring. Keeping up with a fast-paced job all the while only adds to the load.
It can all get a bit too much.
Rejection feels especially tough when you have a very good feeling about a job. Sometimes, it just feels right: the content of the job fits you and the people are inspiring. So why doesn’t it click?
You know you have everything you need to get that job: the credentials, the experience and the attitude. How can you be more than you already are?
It feels impossible, and you feel stuck.
There are many reasons why you want to leave your current job. They often pile up and compound each other. Your days are filled with things you don’t want to do. People around you make you feel uneasy. The stress of the job is getting to your head.
