Every rejection is a vote that you have tried. Don't feel discourage about it. Keep on trying and one day you will succeed. Don't be hard on yourself and just keep trying. The universe always falls in love with the stubborn heart.

That was an incredible and humbling read. Your resilience and self-awareness are truly inspiring. The fact that you’re openly sharing these experiences, not as defeats but as stepping stones, shows just how much you’ve grown. It takes real strength to reflect like this and turn setbacks into lessons.

Honestly, the opportunities you almost got are proof that you're moving in the right direction. A Google interview call, interest from professors, catching the eye of a founder—these aren't small things. They show that you're playing at a high level, and it’s only a matter of time before the right doors open.

Your mindset for 2025 is exactly what will set you apart. Keep going, keep refining your skills, and trust that the right opportunities will come at the right time. Wishing you a year ahead filled with breakthroughs, growth, and success—you deserve it! 🚀🔥

I am not giving up! It's part of life, and I enjoyed this as well.
If everything good happens, then it doesn't make us strong

This was inspiring and humbling to read. And made me acknowledge I still have a job in this competitive, always-layoff market with bleak opportunities. I was watching a TV series yesterday that was saying it's all about "timing and momentum". You will get you time and momentum too. Be vigilant and aim high. Accept any opportunity to prove yourself instead of waiting for ideal one. Good luck!

Don't feel disheartened, everyone has different journey. Actually this blog is not like my normal blogs and it may sound very sad but now I didn't think it as sad because it really helped me to grow.

Your last point has a huge red flag with a big siren. That only was on the interview, I can't imagine how things will be after joining. Thanks for sharing. It takes a lot of courage to share failures.

They tried to negotiate, but I refused. Even if they matched the offer, I still wouldn't continue @canro91

Don't look at them as failures, but as your attempts before you finally get it right.🤝
