stp_biting_me's journey

I recently applied for a job that seemed like a perfect fit for my skills and experience. I felt confident after the interview; the hiring manager seemed impressed with my resume, and we had a great rapport. I followed up with a thank you email, but then I received the disappointing news that I didn't get the position. I reached out to the recruiter for feedback, but I haven't heard back at all. It's frustrating, especially since this was a role I really wanted. I'm still actively searching and applying to about 4 to 5 jobs each day, even some that stretch beyond my current skillset. I’m also planning to start online college courses in a few weeks to enhance my qualifications. It's only been a month since my layoff was announced, and I've got just under two months left until my job officially ends. This whole process is weighing on me, and I'm feeling a bit down about it all.
