Job Interview Setback
I had an interview yesterday with a reputable education recruitment agency, but today I learned they won’t be moving forward with my application after a week-long interview process. The feedback I received was that I didn’t “sell myself enough,” although I felt I had done so. Do you have any tips on how I can improve in this area for future interviews?
