What is the best way to handle rejection, after not being selected an employment position?
I personal sought two job promotions and was not selected. Also, I was seeking enrolement into the police accademy and was rejected. This makes three new job positions and rejections in seven days. I have tried getting follow up information, but never got a completely satisfying answer. I can take on the disappointment. But there seems to be something different I could do besides just rolling with the punches. Naturally, I am going through some identity woes. But I am pretty upbeat. Any ideas, would be a greate help.

- Get over it and keep trying
- revamp your resume and practice your interviewing. if that fails, resort to slashing tires : }
- Maybe your identity is showing too much! Take a step back and look at each interview and maybe what you could have done differently! Good luck.
- big (huge) ice cream vanilla and chocolate, some fudge on it and cream a part. evening in front of the tv watching opera and crying on a big loss. and moving on in life cos "show must go on" and remembering that things sometimes are not the way we think they should be, and it's no proof we were wrong or right, it just happen!

- take it as a challenge and not as a problem. thats life, it isnt always in favor at your side. remember that its not just you who experience such. Just keep trying and doing your best and soon life will be at your side. Keep this, god doesnt always give what you wanted but He sure gives you what you exactly need. It may not be now but on the right time. Keep going and do your best. remember to be the best of what you are.
- Check out all my rejection letters here: http://www.lettersofrejection.com And I haven't been able to find a decent job in almost 2 years.
- You are on the right track. Try to determin why you were rejected and avoid the first thought that the guys on the other side of the table were morons that did not realize your potential. Honestly, do you really need their feedback? In most cases you can probably figure out why. Did you have the right education for the job, the necessary experience? Was your application written at 3am after a night out with your friends or did you overdo it and sent in an essay of 20 pages? Were you desperate to make a good impression at the interview and really tried to be somebody else than you really are - those things always shine through. Remember that there are a hundred applicants to each position, for each employment there are a hundred disappointed individuals, asking basically the same questions you are. Keep trying! With a speed of three applications per week, you will find the right position in no time.
