Can You Turn A Rejection Into A Job Offer?

Can you turn a rejection into a job offer? 

Yes! 

How? By staying in touch. 

How do you stay in touch? It can be as simple as an update on your job hunt progress to the hiring manager who rejected you. 

The main place to begin this work is not in how to craft an update note, however. 

The main place to start is not taking any rejection as a rejection of YOU. 

People often view rejections as the end of a transaction with a company. A rejection of the whole person. This is the same thing as saying “your ego got in the way and screwed things up.”

An interview gives you the chance to get in front of someone and create a connection.

If you completely cut ties with those people, you lose all of the progress you made!

Instead, add those people to your network. Send them regular updates. 

Working to stay in touch, keeping them in your network: these actions lead to future opportunities.
