Why Do I Keep Getting Rejected From Jobs? (Video)
In this 15 July 2026 published video, host Michael Bordenaro talks about how the current hiring market works. If you keep getting rejected, it is often due to a few common friction points in the hiring process: resume formatting, lack of tailoring, or being mismatched for the role’s experience level. Evaluate these main areas to understand why you might be getting passed over.
1. You are getting rejected before the interview (Resume/Application)
Many companies use software to auto-screen resumes. If your resume doesn’t use the exact keywords from the job description, it gets discarded before a human ever sees it. Sending the exact same resume to 50 jobs rarely works. Tailor your bullet points to highlight skills specific to each posting. Employers may reject you if your experience is significantly higher or lower than the posted requirements, as they fear you will be a flight risk or require too much training. Listing your duties is not enough. You must show the impact of your work by quantifying it with data or percentages (e.g., “X” or “25 percent” increases).
2. You are getting rejected after the interview
Recruiters notice immediately if you haven’t researched the company or the role. Use platforms like Glassdoor or LinkedIn to study the company culture and prepare specific questions. When answering questions, use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to keep your answers structured, evidence-backed, and concise. Sometimes it simply comes down to personality, communication style, or differing expectations. It’s a two-way street, and the match needs to work for both sides.
3. External Market Factors
In this highly competitive market, many remote or hybrid jobs attract hundreds of applicants. Sometimes a job is posted for legal compliance when an internal candidate has already been selected.
To turn things around, shift your focus to applying for fewer jobs but spending more time highly customizing each application. If you want to refine your materials, you can use specialized resources like the Jobscan Resume Checker or the Harvard Resume Guide for templates.
