You send your best work. Best resume. Best cover letter. Best demo reel.
And still get the same email back.
Different company. Same words.
"We've decided to move forward with another candidate."
"This decision is not a reflection of your skills or experience."
It's a template. Copy, paste, change the name, hit send.
That's not a verdict on you.
That's a process running on autopilot.
Companies pick people for all kinds of reasons.
So don't let a templated email turn into a story about your worth.
Fix what you can fix.
Let the rest go.
On... Job Rejections
It's a template. Copy, paste, change the name, hit send. That's not a verdict on you.
