I have been quite smooth in securing interviews with approximately 2-3 a month. But what demoralizes me is the rejection without any offer. Seriously passing time without income is worst, I decided to take up a temporary role to build up my experience with a stat board, though it is of a different field.

I gt 1 month 10 plus interviews. But I cancelled some.
Went to 9 but none offer..

I feel you. It is the rejection from the interviews that is totally demoralising.

For my this interview, I waited for almost a month for their reply. They said will let me know by this week but no calls till now. It's a job I really want so I find it depressing.

Must learn to accept the hard truth. I experienced the rejection without call many times. So always have to be strong and positive at all times. Even if this is the job that you really want, you can try similar positions at other firms or apply again few months or years later.

Its really demoralizing when you attending many interviews.. and there many candidates shortlisted in one interview. But I believe there surely will be time when you turn out to be top among the interviews and clinch the job.

Thanks for ur encouraging words. I have to learn to accept rejection. I have always found it hard to accept rejection. When I got rejected by the HR after the interview or I did not receive any calls from the HR after a certain period, I would cry over it. Rejection creates self doubt in me and makes me wonder in what ways am I not good enough. The last interview that I attended and did not receive any news from them till now, I thought the interview went well. So the rejection is harder to swallow.

Yours not the worst. I went through one few months back. I thought the interview went really well. The interview lasted about two to three hours and there's one point of time they actually discussed about salary and benefit working there. So I went home waiting for good news as they said will discuss and let me know within one week. One week later, there's no news and I emailed the person. The person just replied " After much careful consideration, we have decided not to hire anyone for this position at the moment". Felt so negative at that time.
