The competition is strong. It sucks.
Not only are there are a lot of people, employers want "extroverted, bubbly, vivacious, energetic" people. (And these are not sales jobs) It's like if you're not the Energizer Bunny, you can't do the job. They should just say "Introverts and unemployed need not apply".
