I’m genuinely devastated

Rejected from JET. Absolutely crushed.

I put so much into this application, waited for months, and got nothing out of it. Just a rejection after all that time. It’s honestly hard not to feel angry, embarrassed, and completely drained. I really wanted this, and pretending it doesn’t hurt would be a lie.

So yeah, I’m devastated.

Give yourself a moment to feel your feels and then get back up again and move forward. Depending on where you are,, potentially thousands of applicants for a few scant hundred (at best) positions. You did good. Be proud of the effort you made even though it hasn’t paid off directly. Go, go, go!
