The best thing you can do for yourself is keep going. Stay positive and keep searching and applying for roles, keep asking for feedback and advice on how to improve for that next application or interview. Don’t stop, no matter how disheartening it is at first hearing negative news. I find taking action is the best thing I can do when I feel like it’s the last thing I want to do!

Also take a moment to look back on how far you have come and the achievements you have made along the way. You will see that you can achieve what you are after.

I think about how I have grown from the first day I started working. I have developed my job application and interview techniques by becoming more self-aware and making improvements along the way. It can be hard to take the time to notice where improvements can be made. Sometimes it is the last thing you want to do! But taking that extra effort to understand how you could approach a similar situation differently next time could be just the key. I look back on all the jobs I have succeeded in getting, all the things I have learnt and the people I have gotten to know and I wouldn’t change any of it. Even the bad days. Each rejection led me to the roles I was successful in landing and the fantastic experience I gained as a result.
