[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can you help her? Empathize but don’t feed the grieving and then focus on the positive. OP, this is a gift in disguise. Rejection builds a thick skin which, in the game of life is an advantage that is invaluable in countless ways. She’ll be fine. [/quote] +1. Just one of likely many disappointments in life. She also likely won't get every job she applies to, etc. Doesn't mean it's a personal assessment of her abilities; it's likely just a nunbers game. Adapt and move on. Focus on making connections, which often matters more than merit. [/quote]
