I tried many ways to frame or explain the situation but I think the interviewers most of time "killed me" on the spot, and after making a mark on their papers, proceed to eliminate me from the field.

Since I couldn't make the cut for so long, I wonder if I should continue to waste time doing what I am doing now.
