You Don't need to feel sad when you are rejected in a job interview. Here
No matter how hard you prepare for a job interview,
sometimes, you just don’t get the job you really want to have.
Rejection could be a frustrating experience especially if it has
happened more than once.
But when this happen, you don’t have to resign to fate or think
some village people are working against your chances. You
don’t have to get demoralized and stop your job search.
As a matter of fact, rejection can actually help you prepare
better for your next job interview and that is, if you take the
time to learn from it.
The following tips can help you move one after getting
rejected in a job interview.
.
.
1. Don’t take it personally
.
Hiring managers have a duty to either accept or reject a
candidate in the interest of the company they work for. If you
get a no from them, don’t say they reject you because they
don’t like your face. Don’t get angry with them or with yourself.
Don’t also let frustration set in. Instead, take time to process
your emotion. If you’re feeling troubled about it, talk to
someone, may be a friend or your mentor
.
2) Ask for feedback
.
When you get a no from a hiring manager, you can ask him/
her why you didn’t get the job. There may have been forces
outside your control. For example, the company might have
decided to promote someone to fill the role.
The management might have also decided not to hire for the
position again.
On the flip side, you might be the reason you were not
employed. You might have been rejected because your skills
didn’t match the job requirements or you’re not culturally fit
for the organization. Knowing the reasons you’re overlooked
helps you identify where the areas you need to develop
yourself and prepare better for another interview.
.
3). Volunteer
.
Volunteering can help you build your confidence and improve
your skillsets and ability to work with others. Instead of getting
frustrated and losing hope, volunteering helps you see how
much you’re valued and at the same time add depth to your
resume.
4). Keep up the search
.
Never let the frustration that sometimes comes with job
search stop you from searching. The sooner you get back
searching after a rejection the sooner you get the job you are
looking for.
