Strategies for Overcoming Rejection
Manage episode 483726970 series 3589600
If you've been on, what feels like a never ending job search, please tune in! Jen Warrington discusses the impact of rejection in careers, emphasizing that it's often a business decision unrelated to personal worth. She shares her personal experience of being laid off during a global restructuring in 2020, which initially made her question her skills. Jen advises using rejection as a learning opportunity, asking for feedback, and maintaining a positive outlook. She suggests creating a "kudos folder" to store positive feedback from colleagues and clients, which can boost confidence. Jen encourages us to take rejection as a chance to reassess career goals and values, and to seek support from mentors and resources available through her career community.
