Sometimes an employer has to choose from among several qualified candidates. You can be a good fit and not get an offer.

There are legal and practical reasons why candidates don’t generally receive feedback when a candidate is not extended an offer.

I want to quit without a job lined up. My agency is a dumpster fire of incompetent project managers, revolving door of creatives and culture of not holding people accountable amidst a micromanaging gossipy leadership. I just want out. Tell me it is ok and will be alright.
