[QUOTE="axelbeugre, post: 172695, member: 30937"] Hey [USER=28416]@FT_82[/USER], I am so sorry for how you are feeling right now and it is a totally valid feeling to have. Sometimes it is really difficult to gauge how an interview went and our perceptions can often be extremely different from reality. As much as it is not nice to receive a rejection, I always tried to focus on the positive aspect of the situation. First of all you were given a chance to practice your interview skills in an assessment centre. So many people are not as fortunate so being proud for having obtained and participated in one is already a big achievement. I think it is important to use this experience to learn a lot about yourself, how you have to prepare better for another assessment centre you might have in the future and what strengths and weaknesses you have noticed about yourself: do you get nervous? are you comfortable with commercial questions? do you ask thought provoking questions at the end of an interview? These are some of the things you might want to reflect on after the assessment centre. Additionally, asking for feedback is crucial as it will make you understand what you are doing wrong or if there is something you can work on. More often than not a rejection is not even dependent on you performing badly but just that the competition was fierce and decisions had to be made unfortunately. I have written some tips on how to deal with rejection in this post I hope they are useful: [URL]https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/tcla-direct-training-contract-applications-discussion-thread-2023-4.8038/post-170058[/URL] Good luck with your journey!
