Still no prospect on ever getting a new job.

I have sent well over 60 job applications, and have had about 8-9 job interviews. Although I'm getting better at the job interviews, I still haven't had any success.

I can present myself as a reliable, flexible and honest person and people say they believe me when I tell that. They can also tell that I'm very eager to start working again and they compliment me for these things.

However, they never hire me! Somehow there's always a better fit out there. They are sure that I will find a job within the next few months, but I can't work for them.

I still have the strength to keep going, but severe depression is right around the corner. I can only assume that all those compliments I get are lies to make me feel better. It makes me angry that people would rather lie to you than be honest.
