[QUOTE="FutureTrainee100, post: 231944, member: 24616"] I really feel this, and just wanted to say you’re not alone. Last year I made it to 3 ACs. This year, nothing so far. I’ve been rejected from every single VI I’ve done, despite getting strong feedback previously and knowing my written apps and psychometrics are solid. What’s hit me hardest is that I’ve just bombed a VI for a firm where I did an AC last year, was told I was “a hair away”, and was strongly encouraged to reapply this cycle. Im bawling right now. It’s incredibly demoralising when you know you’re capable at AC level but can’t even get back into the room. I don’t really have answers, but I wanted to add another data point that supports what you’re saying, this cycle feels fundamentally different, and it’s not a reflection of us suddenly becoming worse candidates.
