Just wanted to share a story here. I’ve been wanting to work for BCG since I was a junior in college. I never managed to even get an interview in undergrad. A year ago, I finally got an interview and I thought it was God opening a door for me. I practiced all day long for several weeks; I meditated and tried as hard as I possibly could. I got rejected and felt devastated. A year later, I interviewed again, but this time I just prayed “thy will be done” before the interview. Today, I got my offer

Relevant Joel Osteen. One selected quote:

“God is going to put you at the right place at the right time. He's going to send divine connections, people that will go out of their way to be good to you. You couldn't make it happen. It was the favor of God bringing you into your yes.”

Had a very similar experience through undergrad recruiting. Final rounds with Bain/McK for internship and did not get it. Fast forward to early recruiting, did not get McK. Going into Bain, was very much in a place knowing that whatever He has in store for me is His plan, and His plan is good, regardless of whether that be at Bain or at my internship firm. Ended up having a Christian Sr Partner interview me. Did not talk about faith at all, but can’t help but think that he viewed my resume favorably ahead of time (due to Christian orgs) and that I am right where God has me, and that allowing yourself to be content with His plan is important regardless of what happens.
