Cisco interviewed me for 3 months for a couple of roles and then offered me comp that is considerably less than my current comp for a product manager role!! They also said its cisco policy to not offer rsu for mcol cities. Rsu is apparently only meant for candidates in hcol cities.
Need to punch a bag every day for several days to get over this bs.

I always tell myself that each no is that much closer to a yes. It sort of creates this competition in my mind of how many calls can I make to get a yes. I don't know if it would work for other people but it works really well for me.

I like this!
Focus on what you can control: your activity, your attitude, and your preparation. Reframe each rejection as data, not a verdict on you, and set process goals (meaningful conversations, good discovery) instead of just outcome goals. What I do to avoid sounding pushy is slow down, ask one or two deeper questions, and genuinely listem. If it’s not a fit, say so plainly so you feel like a partner rather than a persuader.

I also remind myself of who I’m working for—not my boss, but my baby son. Gotta be persistent for him.
