Just wanted to pop in and put some good energy out into the world. Applied for a position that was a reach based on my experience, but the job was such a dream I wanted to try. Didn’t get the gig, but that’s okay. I opened the door and got a conversation going because I know I’d be the perfect fit for them and vice versa. So I’m feeling… really good about it, despite not getting it.

And I guess I’m just hoping to put that energy out there for everyone. Shit’s tough rn. We need it.

Yes! Not getting a particular job can be such a bummer that it overshadows the positive that can come from the experience. I once interviewed for what I felt would be my dream job. I didn't get it, and was so disappointed, but 6 months later, the hiring manager who I'd interviewed with contacted me. Turns out, I'd made such a good impression on her that she'd kept my name on file. She was with a new company and thought I'd be a great fit for one of their openings. I absolutely LOVE my job and would have missed out if I hadn't put myself out there. Silver linings are there - we just have to look for them.

Thank you for your post. You have a great attitude. A rejection from a job can lead to future employment based on your response and attitude. There are many reasons for not hiring a candidate. I interviewed with an agency and didn't get hired. I asked their recruiter if I could check in for future jobs. She said yes. A year later, they hired me for another open position on a different account. I hope you get hired soon.

Nothing wrong with stretching to try to grab a star. Sometimes you catch one. And when you don’t, you’re still standing firm on earth. Not a bad place to be.

You got the kind of attitude and perspective that will take you far. Best of luck to you!

Advice, please!A local, well established firm is seeking me out. I was upfront that I was not looking but because he was persistent and this could be something I’m interested in for the future, I had a sit down with him. At the end, he said the ball was in my court and he would love for me to go through a formal interview. The firm seems great, but my current position is 100% remote and fits perfectly into my schedule. Do I interview even though I wouldn’t consider changing until next year?!

I’m assuming that’s work weeks, but is that appropriate to ask for clarification? I don’t want them to think that’s all I care about, but these are important to me.
