Desperation to land the right job doesn't mean I would be terrible at the job. In fact, it probably means the exact opposite. Look at me versus somebody who is cocky and expects to land any job he/she wants with no trouble. Which of us do you think will end up working harder for you and doing a better job for you?

Number 2 happened to me a couple times. The first job I interviewed for last month after graduating was really cool and I had an amazing interview but for some reason, they never called back. The Hiring Manager all but hired me on the spot. He told me to come back next week for training... and nothing happened. The same happened another time after that. I have come to understand that the level of enthusiasm they show in the interview doesn't really amount to anything, so I do my best but I don't put an obligation on the employer to do anything anymore. I learned to accept that I may not get hired even if I have all the qualifications and had a great interview. It's just the way the world is.

Linda, I love your videos - they are extremely informative and concise. I have been unemployed for 11 months now and have to put on a "happy face" during each interview and treat it as a new adventure. I do tell stories describing how I've solved problems for companies and also bring samples of my work instead of simply "telling" them my skills. I do smile frequently and am upbeat, give eye contact and ask questions. Yet, I am still convinced that there are "gray areas" in HR hiring practices. Companies may already have an internal candidate in mind, but make you go through the arduous process of interviewing a panel of managers and come back multiple times. Also, many job descriptions specify 3-5 years of experience with a college degree. This practice is clearly geared towards attracting a younger employee right out of college because they will work for less money and will not likely retire for a few decades. So, what can a seasoned employee do when nobody wants to hire them?

5 reasons: 1: lack of optimism / confidence 2: put all of your eggs in the next interview ( instead make a connection with the hiring manager) 3: self rejection / doubt 4: compare to others ( you have value to offer) 5: feeling desperate than excited Note: i applied for more than 180 jobs in the last 2 months and I have interviews almost everyday. But I am not reaching the 3rd or last round of interviews often. I don't even feel sad when I get rejected in my last round interview. I got used to it. I don't know if it's a good thing or not 😮💨

In my previous employment none of the skills learned in a company or department were transferable to a new employer. There were no promotions and no new skills or tasks to be learned no training just pushing paper for not even half a day. So for me seeking a job now days is very difficult, especially with no skills. I'm tired of having just a job, I want a job that can turn into a career.

Find a job is so hard. I lost hope. I'm hard working person but no one excepts me. I have some experience but nothing is enough. While I was studying at the university, I was an intern in court for about 1 year. Then I was working in government agency, I had practice there for about 7 months. Now I have unpaid job, and waiting until they notice me. I applied for so many applications but never received call... I'm 22 years old by the way 😭

Not exhibiting a negative demeanor or rejecting the suggestions, but it's not always the candidates. Often times its the recruiters. Sometimes, they tend to pick who they like or know oppose to the most competent. That's why there are people who are confused when they convey or converse with others on and during the job. Then the company has a weak ROI and high turn-overs. This continuously caused the company to search for candidates with a continuous cycle. No one owes anyone anything... well some people do;however, How would a candidate ne a best fit when their not granted an opportunity?

2# i am always focused. I'm stressed because they say no. #1 disappointment #3 knowing you are a good fit and knowing you will land the position depends on the interviewer. My perspective is the factors of not having the position and knowing they won't. I'm glad on the other hand that some said no. Often times the industry isnt professional nor successful. Not saying I prayed against the process but need something I will do.

Once, I went for an interview for a retail job and the manager said I was hired. Great! I filled out paperwork and manager called to fill out more the following week. Didn't hear back for next 2 weeks. Called to ask if everything was ok, was told manager is scheduling things. 1 week later, have not heard anything. I get an email about harassment training and go in for that. Manager stated in email she tried to text me, but I have not received anything from her. Nothing a week later. I try to call a week later and the phone just rings and rings. I never knew it was possible to be hired and then un-hired...

Employers need to get over themselves. Hire people that are ambitious for the position. Not the idiot who has a ton of experience. It is proven that people with experience are smug, self-absorbed troglodytes. They are stubborn and think they know everything. They behave towards others with an elitist demeanor. What a useless person to have in your company. As an ex-company owner, I had the best success with hiring green-horns. They WANTED to learn and do the job right. THAT made my business successful. They molded to my company's expectations. But hey!! My IQ is far above 70 so I can't speak for the 90% of company managers out there.

Some hiring business would rather save money and hire in house instead of outsiders. It's all about saving money. Not giving outsiders a fair chance in getting the position. "Jobs", want you to have experience. How can you gain experience if some jobs or all jobs don't give u chance unless you have experience. How can someone get experience if they don't give people a chance. Thanks for the advice.

So I've been having some ups and downs looking for a new job. I recently had an interview for a Marketing position with a top tech company that took a few weeks. One week I had a call with their Cali--based recruiter. A few days after I spoke with their NYC-based recruiter. A week or so later I had an person interview and met with the NYC recruiter and had Skype interviews with 3 other people. THEN, that Friday or the following Friday they also had me do a video interview with 2 other people I'd be working with. I followed up with one person, who directed me back to the Cali person...Who called me back a few days later and told me I didn't get the job. Even though everyone seemed to be impressed with me, I just didn't have the experience that other candidates have. On the one hand, it feels great to have been chosen for an interview with this company. That does great things for my confidence somewhat. But then it sucks that I didn't get the job. I've been getting some interest here and there...I'm waiting to here back from one company about the final interview I had 2 or so weeks ago, and I am in the process of the first steps of a Marketing Coordinator position for one company and a Content Development Internship at another. I've been contacted about an Editorial Writing Internship that ended up not being a fit for what I expect from a position financially. I've been working on my brand for some time...Making sure I have a decent social media presence that amply showcases what I do. And it seems to be garnering positive results with some of the companies I'm applying to. But I know that in order to really impress any/every company that comes across my resume, I need to make sure my next role is full of opportunities to build KPIs for organizations. I want to be able to say that as a result of content I developed, links had an average click rate of 60-80% for social campaigns or email, etc etc, an average of 150 likes or shares, etc. I have similar metrics for a company I worked at as a content writing intern a few years back, but I really need to push those results much farther. I need my next opportunity to give me the creative freedom to develop and market content, as well as work within established protocols, so I can really build an even more impressive resume. It's disheartening to be so close yet not close the deal on my next job yet.

If I get your lecture clearly, these are the five main reasons why I can't get a new job offer: 01. Looking for a new job becomes a chore. 02. Get disappointed & lost further interest in the job search/hunting. 03. Overlooking oneself or self doubt. 04. You are not professionally present. 05. You feel desperate rather than excited. I am seriously facing number two because I lost hiring decision twice within the period of two years. What is the way forward to me now? Mabor, South Sudan in Africa 🌍🌍.. Thanks
