Firm told me they aren’t moving on with my recruiting process after I had scheduled interviews. Any advice on what I can even do? They said they found someone even though my interviews are tomorrow. Boutique consulting shop if that matters

I feel like interviewing and dating are so similar

No, there’s nothing you can do about it. If they found someone else, that’s their choice

My SO had this happen and wrote a letter to the HM gushing about the company and basically thanked them anyway and asked that they reach out if something else comes up. They were apparently split between the final candidates and the letter convinced them to just hire both.

Don’t expect this by any means but if you genuinely wanted it, people remember that kind of stuff. Consider doing something similar if you really like the company, then just apply elsewhere.

Hello Fishes, its really strange to ask but I have no option left.
I have almost 2 years of gap in my career due to medical issues, but not its recovered and I am trying to rejoin again. I applied to so many places but has been seeing only rejections either due to gap and either due to my over qualification.
I am truly tired of applying and waiting for their call back and reverts, Its like getting into depression slowly slowly.
Is their any place where I can get hired soon. Please help me.
