Failed interview for job I really wanted

Dec 17, 2019 9 Comments

I've never been one to get down when getting rejected. I've been working for 6 years now and know what I like. It's not all about TC anymore. I wish it were that simple.

I interviewed for a company that I felt I'd really enjoy going to. Medium sized company with enthusiastic coworkers working on something interesting. I got rejected and feel like absolute shit. I was so close, but messed up one interview while doing great in the other 4. I feel defeated. Just wanted to vent.

    Hang in there. Job hunting is one of the most god awful experiences people can go through sometimes.

    Keep your head up. These are the hardest interviews in the world. I just failed one part of my on-site for a company (granted I didn’t care about them) that literally had the question on Glassdoor and I chose to ignore it this morning when I was studying it. Don’t stress and just keep swinging!

    I feel your pain. Just got rejected from Amazon yesterday and I felt like I did really well and was hoping it’d be my golden ticket out of consulting. Hang in there though. I’m sure something better will come for the both of us if we’re patient!

    Shit happens. You at least know what went wrong. Take this as a lesson learned and kill your next interview.

  • Honestly... give it a longer time horizon and you will see that it’s a good thing after all... happened to me!
