In 2018 I was looking for jobs. Among a lot of rejection(拒绝） emails, one was very kind. It was a personal reply.
Dear Alan,
The email above is the official message that I need to add to every rejection email. But I just wanted to add a personal thought.
I've been in your position a few times- either starting out and looking to get a job for the first time, or wanting to have a new role (that nobody thinks you can do), or simply hoping to get a break.
It's difficult. Sometimes it seems so unfair. You know how good you are and what you can bring to the table, but sometimes you never get to even talk about it.
So, that's what I just wanted to say- even though you didn't make it this time, please keep fighting. Yes, please keep trying because the next opportunity is just around the comer.
