Rallying From Rejection

How does one deal with rejection by a potential employer? An article on page 1J, in the December 13, 2009, edition of The Dallas Morning News, by Ralph Lee, MultiAd Builder suggests the following ideas for dealing with job rejection:

1. Sometimes, the other applicant is just a better fit for the job
2. Don’t take rejection personally
3. Don’t let it negatively impact other parts of your life
4. Be prepared for rejection
5. Rejection could be a blessing in disguise
6. Handle the rejection tactfully
7. Just one “yes” is all you need

From personal experience, I agree with the above ideas. I know that a positive attitude is the key to success in all endeavors including finding a job. Further, energy is also important from both an internal and external perspective.

Please comment in this blog if you have suggestions for job seekers who are dealing with rejection.
