I did it.

Took me about 5 months after getting laid off but right when I was about to give up after one of my most difficult rejections, all of a sudden I was a different company’s “unicorn” candidate. One mans trash is another mans treasure.

I feel for everyone who feels unsteady right now. There isn’t anything I can say to lighten the mood and give you guys hope other than letting you know my experience.

My pet peeve has been the inability of companies to provide feedback. I understand this is for legal reasons, but it was the most disheartening part of this entire process.

For most of you guys, it really isn’t your fault. I got lucky, I hope you do too.
