Why Your Job Search Rejection Is Actually A Good Thing

Recently, a gainfully-employed friend was recounting her job hunting frustration. While typical job seeker complaints tend to center around sending applications into the ether and hearing nothing in response or tales of companies looking to get elite talent for bargain basement salaries, her problem was a little different. She applies to an intriguing role she sees on a job board and, because she's got great experience and her resume and cover letter are top-notch, she often hears from a hiring manager within 48 hours. She breezes through initial screenings and acquits herself well in first-round interviews, but when it comes down to the final steps before references get checked and offers get made, the company inevitably opts for another candidate. While the investments (in terms of emotions, energy, time away from her current job) she's been making in these hiring processes are a drain, she's in much better shape than most job seekers. In fact, her final mile rejections are actually positive signals in the grand scheme of things.
