You're not alone - how to tackle rejection in a job search

Über diese Folge

<p>So you had your heart set on the job. You did the best you could, you got a great interview, they seemed to love you, and then you found out you didn’t get the job. Or maybe you’re getting generic rejection emails from every job you apply for. Either way, it's easy to get discouraged.</p><p>This episode has been highly requested, so Sarah and Emma go through our tips, as well as the tips our listeners submitted on Instagram. This one is less about practical advice, and more about support, and we include a great mindset exercise at the end to help you put your rejection into context.</p><p>🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Simon&nbsp;</p><p>Hi Emma and Sarah, I started job hunting almost 5 months ago and didn't have a lot of luck until recently! Coming from a toxic work environment had shattered my confidence and it was showing, I had been applying for roles beneath my ability with little success. After a good reset over the new year and then a holiday walking around Tasmania (i'm from NZ) I thought I needed to really do something about this and started listening to your podcast! I listened to over a dozen episodes whilst on holiday and surpise a company I had applied to, rang and wanted an interview as soon as possible, so whilst on holiday we did a zoom interview which I thought I bombed, but they wanted a second one when I got back. long story short your positive practical advice gave me the confidence and tips I needed to succeed in the interviews and I just got the job this week! It's a step up, with more pay, slightly less hours and great benefits. But most importantly the people there are so nice; it's almost a dream. I've been telling everyone about your podcast, so please keep it up! Cheers Simon”</p><p>☕ Did our podcast help you out? Want to say thank you in coffee form?
