I keep getting to the third or final round of interviews but have yet to land a new gig. What could I be doing to push myself over the hump? Feeling a little burnt out after having this happen twice this week.

Are you getting any feedback? Or just a no (or ghosted)?

Both times I got a “we are going to move ahead with a different candidate.” Both have been super kind in saying they’ll keep me in mind for future roles. It’s just frustrating to get that far in and fall flat and I was curious if anyone had any advice.

Needing advise. I have been at my new company for 3 months and I hate it. So much to hate too much to type up.

I heard it’s not good to bash other companies but I genuinely do not know how to explain why I want to leave without my current company getting bashed. Should I just put it all out there or keep it vague?
