Had a huge setback with this place I think I interviewed well rejecting me. The email did the usual “we got soooo many qualified apparently so we knew we didn’t have to settle for you!” way to rub it in my best efforts still lose to everyone.

How am I supposed to get a job when I have to be the very very very best person in the world and every other worker is a hyper competent star with masters at Ivies and all that crap? And that’s the bare minimum?
