Any tips. Just finding rejection difficult. It’s not that I wanted the job especially but I do want to leave my existing role as it’s not sustainable.

Try not to take it personally. There are many reasons why you might not get a job, and they don’t necessarily mean you’re not good enough. If you can, get some feedback from the interview panel. Just keep applying, there’s a new job out there for you. It’s harder when you really want to leave your current job but you just have to keep going. Good luck!

Ah op it is brutal and it's like they know you are desperate for a job so seems crueler - obvs they don't know but the right job will come up. Def ask for feedback.
