How do you handle it when you start getting interviews but no offers. It’s like progress that doesn’t count. I’m trying to stay motivated, but the near misses sting more than the rejections.

when you start getting interviews it means you’ve nailed your applications/cv. on paper they think you could do the job.

interviews, it’s nailing your questions, rapport. you got this. practice makes perfect

Practice your star questions/responses.

It’s not progress that does not count. You’re getting opportunities that others don’t get to practice, to refine your pitch, to face a variety of questions, some which perhaps hadn’t occurred to you. It is like going to the gym, it all adds up and will pay off at the appropriate time. Just focus on making each interview great for now.
