The process from rejection to acceptance for a job

Choosing between two or more work opportunities means that you can be both excited and stressed, concerning your needs, the environmental factors, and the actual plan that you want to develop for your career. But the period until you get the replies that you expect from potential employers is even more worrying.

   In the past, I read a post on LinkedIn, saying that the process of the searching period until being hired is as follows: “Get rejected. Get a reply. Get rejected. Get an email. Get rejected. Get an SMS. Get rejected. Get an interview. Get rejected. Get an interview. Get a random phone call. Get a dream job.”. No! It is a huge no over this view about this topic. The truth is as follows:

 

Get rejected.

Get rejected.

Get a job.

Get fired without being paid as assumed.

Or get fired for other unexpected reasons (i.e., employer behavior).

Get rejected (times x100).

Get a reply.

Get the job, as it was presented as a level-A job.

Get the job.

Finally, discover that this job is a level-Z job.

Resignation (frustration).

Once again, frustration.

Do not let frustration for a third time in a row.

Apply a better CV submission strategy.

Focus on your needs, and the available opportunities.

Send your CV (times x20 up to x40).

Get rejected.

Get three interviews.

Get the chance to decide your next employer.

Siege the opportunity!

Get the job you like most (between them).

Stay there as long as possible.

If you want, move on to the next job.

 

   The definite lesson from the above process is one: happiness! It is not about working; it is about living nicely and doing things that you like most! It is not about being rich or having followers and views on your social media! Rejection is a step closer to success. Are you happy? Creating your own path through your own decisions leads to happiness! Leading yourself! Follow your own strategy. Your instinct.
