[QUOTE="SoonToBeTrainee, post: 183098, member: 32830"] Jones Day PFO post-interview. I thought the interview went really well too. I do think firms should provide interview feedback. Telling us “it’s very competitive” and that “luck plays a huge part” is not particularly helpful or reassuring, even if it is true. It’s only the beginning of the cycle, yet I already feel a bit hopeless. The application and interview process has given me a sort of anti-imposter syndrome. Why not me? Am I undesirable as a candidate? Will I ever get a TC? Or, is this just a pipe dream. Why is this year going to be any different to the previous years of constant rejection? So many of us have pursued this career cycle after cycle, year after year. It’s genuinely heartbreaking to continually be told ‘no’. Sorry for the low mood. But, I’m sure many of you reading this often feel the same way. We always hear about the success stories, but not much about how the rejections affect us. This is a bit of a nothing/pointless post, but I just want you all to know that, regardless of how you feel, you’re not alone. [/QUOTE]
