I got through 4th round interviews where every interview was GREAT, but the day after the 4th they cut me. I was devastated, but the next day started a new round of interviews with another exciting opportunity. 4 rounds of GREAT interviews later, they cut me, too, this time because they wanted someone with deeper "grassroots" marketing chops. I cried in the shower. The same day, I start another round of interviews for an ECD role, and once again it's going GREAT... Am I delusional?

I haven’t made it past 2nd round hiring manager. I I feel you! Dozens of interviews over the past six months. Some of which I thought were really great conversations. I was really surprised to be cut. I try to find one thing From each rejection I can change or tweak for the next opp. I’ve come to the conclusion that all I can do is the footwork and leave the results to ____. It’s didn’t used to be this hard in my 30 or 40s. 😩. I’m rooting for you!!

Oh man this is me as well - I’ve been second place four times now and it’s all been ridiculous feedback such as “oh you were so qualified we knew you’d get bored quickly”, or “we hired the candidate from our direct competition” but your presentation was by far the best. Just wanted to commiserate - it’s hard to not take it personally.

Hello friends,

Please help!

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?
