These are 100% real rejection letters I’ve gotten during the past year up until now. I’m posting one letter a day until I get a job. This might take awhile.</description><title>A COLLECTION OF REJECTION</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @warmregards)</generator><link>http://warmregards.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>6:18 p.m.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Dear Chrissy,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thank you for giving us the opportunity to consider you for employment.

&lt;p&gt;Thank you for your follow-up and for making the time to meet with us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We really enjoyed meeting you and were glad that we had the opportunity to talk to you about &lt;strike&gt;Publication&lt;/strike&gt; and to assess how your experience and skills met the role we had.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While your experience was of a high level, after interviewing, we found an alternative candidate who more closely matched the requirements for the role.  Therefore, it is with regret that we inform you that we will not be progressing your application further on this occasion.  We would, however very much like to keep your application on file should another suitable vacancy become available in the near future.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We thank you for your interest in &lt;strike&gt;Publication&lt;/strike&gt; and wish you every success for the future.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First off, I had a blast speaking with you last week and I appreciate you flying all the way from Chicago. You&amp;#8217;re an awesome person. So smart, funny and personable. That said, I&amp;#8217;m sorry to say I chose a different candidate for the editorial assistant position. Still, you were at the top of the list (and I&amp;#8217;m not just saying that) so please keep in touch because I&amp;#8217;m gonna need contributors. If anything else opens up I&amp;#8217;ll definitely keep you in mind.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks again for flying in and take care.&lt;/p&gt;
