  1. I had been rejected 10 times in interviews. I always reevaluate but each time somethings seem to go wrong. I cannot get the right thing to crack the interviews. Being a Electrical Engineer but interested in IT also I try to sell my computer skills. They are limited but each day I am trying to learn and enhance my limitation. How can I overcome these failures? I do all the necessary evaluation but still it happens again and again.

  2. Hey Soutik,

    It’s Ok. There is a market slowdown currently and it just seems like one of those times when all things seem to be going haywire. Have you thought about assessing what sort of roles you would be more suited to? Several assessment tests (like the AMCAT) in the market can help you do that.
