Good post Ruby! I am sorry that you've been struggling with interviews and hiring. There is research suggesting that employers often do not hire the best person for the job based on an interview. Apparently the typical employer usually decides whether the applicant will get the job or not within the first minute or two of them walking into the room. That's because humans are such visual creatures. So the employer is making a quick judgment based on appearance. Something for all of us to consider when we interview....appearance and outfit matter.

That must be frustrating when you go through so many interviews and don't receive an offer. That has not been my experience but my work is very specialized so I am typically not competing with a huge number of applicants.

How do you feel about your interview skills? I think that's helpful for all of us workers to practice. Sometimes I role play with a friend before an interview. Also helps me to feel calm and prepared.

I bet there are some great articles online about interview tips! I wish you the best of luck with your job search. You already started so you are at least halfway there!
