You’ve gotten far along in the interview process only to find out that you were not selected for the position. You feel disappointed, upset, and frustrated that you can’t seem to close the deal and be offered the job. 

In this episode, I’m holding some space for you to be disappointed in the job search process to determine your next steps. Unfortunately, not every interview results in a job offer. However, you can do things to help you process that rejection differently so you can learn from that experience and improve your process for your next interview. Your next steps are vital to your career success.
