You were snubbed? Sounds a little entitled tbh.
There are typically many factors that go into a decision like that, and we don't always love when they don't go our way.
If you're that offended, I would suggest you approach your manager professionally and ask for clarification and insight into how to be considered in the future.
Just because someone more junior was selected, it doesn't negate their position or their abilities.
This happened to me recently. It’s a hard pill to swallow so I feel you! Trying to understand “why” isn’t getting me anyplace productive. I am trying to live with it and understand that we are all human. We all are trying our best even if we don’t agree on what that is. Everything for a reason, too. Maybe they are trying to excite the junior professional.
