Job Seekers: Don't Let Rejection Get You Down
 
Job hunting can be a pretty a
grueling process. You can wade through application form after
application form; finally get a call to an interview only to be turned
down. Rejection is hard to deal with, it can be pretty difficult to pick yourself up again and continue the hunt.

From the Graduate Recruitment Bureau, here are 5 things to keep in mind when dealing with rejection.  

Don't make it a personal thing

If you're rejected it can feel
like a personal attack on your abilities and it's easy to beat yourself
up trying to work out what is wrong with you. Don't take rejection like
this – you don't know why they turned you down and chances are it's not
because of a major personality flaw you may or may not have. Each
interview you go to is good practice, the more you end up going to the
better you will get at them and the less nerve wracking they will
become. It's always a good idea to ask for feedback after being turned
down at interview. This will give you an idea of where you went wrong
and where you can improve at the next interview. Each interview is
valuable piece of experience.

You've got to live and learn

Often when you do something for the first time or first few times, you're not very good at it. No one would ask you to put on a one-man show of Swan
Lake if you've just started learning ballet. People need practice and
need to make mistakes in order to learn. When you've got your feedback,
you know where you went wrong and you can make sure it doesn't happen
again. You can then continue with your search in the knowledge that
you're a little bit better than you were. Then when the next interview
comes along you'll be that bit more prepared.
 
Don't let it get you down

The worst thing you can do after being turned down is develop a negative
attitude towards yourself, your interviewer, job hunting and
anything/one else that may come your way. If you approach job hunting
and interviews with a negative attitude it's going to make it even
harder. It may even come across in your interview which will only end
badly for you. Approach each interview with a positive mind set, if you
don't believe you can get the job then why on earth would anyone else?
 
Be realistic

On the flip-side of this, don't be overconfident. You may have gone into
an interview absolutely 100% sure you were going to get the job and now
you've been rejected you can't work out why. Being confident is key but
never assume that a job is going to be yours. You'll be up against lots
of other people, one of whom could be better than you. If you go into an interview with a realistic attitude, aware that competition will
probably be fierce, then rejection won't be such a shock.
 
Don't give up

If you keep getting turned down it can be easy to declare you are giving
up on trying to find a job at all and are going to live in a commune in
Mongolia where money holds no value. Before making any rash decisions
about alternative lifestyles, remember why you are doing what you're
doing. One day someone will actually give you a job so just keep going.
Giving up isn't really an option, keep searching for jobs and going to
interviews and eventually you will get there.

America: Land of the free, home of the overqualified
Colleges keep pumping out graduates, even though many hold jobs that don't come close to needing a degree.
By Jonathan Berr
 
The outlook for recent college graduates continues to be depressing.

According to data released earlier this year by the Center for College Affordability & Productivity, 48% of employed U.S. college graduates are in jobs that don't require a four-year degree and 37% are employed in positions that require only a high school diploma. The rise in underemployment in this group since 1970 is pretty stark.

More than 15% of taxi drivers and firefighters hold college degrees. In 1970, fewer than 1% of taxi drivers held one, and the figure for firefighters was about 2%. Nearly 25% of all retail salespeople, along with 15% of bank tellers and 5% of janitors are now college graduates, the report says. Back in the 1970s, college graduates with those jobs accounted for less than 5% of the workforce.

Many of
these workers in low-paying jobs are going to have a tough time repaying their student loans. According to the Project on Student Debt at the Institute for College Access & Success, students who borrowed money and earned a bachelor's degree in 2011 owed an average of $26,6000 in student debt, up from $25,250 in 2010. Given that college tuition has risen at greater than the rate of inflation for years, that figure will only increase in the coming years.

Unfortunately, a huge mismatch exists between the skills of the American workforce and the jobs that are available. As Edward Luce recently noted in The Financial Times, Germany does a much better job in training its workforce.

"Germany channels roughly half of all high-school students into the vocational education stream from the age of 16. In the US that would be seen as too divisive, even un-American," he writes. "More than 40 per cent of Germans become apprentices. Only 0.3 per cent of the US labour force does so."

Training workers for tomorrow's jobs is easier and cheaper than retraining those whose skills are deficient. The U.S., though, has a lot to do to improve in this area. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the labor "participation rate," the number of people looking for work, is at its lowest level since 1979.
