Hi MaybeOneDay, You are absolutely right, things could be worse and someone will give you a chance eventually. Yes it is hard going but the good thing is that you haven't given up. I can empathise with your non-successful application from Greggs. A couple of weeks ago I had a brilliant interview for a job and I came away thinking that they would be hard-pushed not to employ me unless they had a really good internal candidate. Disclosure wasn't a problem at all (I may have posted elsewhere about that). I wasn't successful but an hour after requesting feedback which has to be requested via their HR department, they phoned me back with an interview offer for the same job in a different location. Admittedly I'd forgotten I'd applied for it. So what I'm trying to say is although I wasn't successful in that interview, I'm obviously good enough to be considered for the post but there was someone that must have just edged it. It brings to mind Alan Sugar deciding who's going to win the Apprentice* Getting your foot in the door is a good analogy. I feel as though I've got my toes just about in but not quite ready for the shoulder barge yet. Don't feel that you've let your kids down, you haven't. You've done your best for them and are still trying to do your best for them. Good luck with your future applications and don't be put off by applying for anything. * No I'm not Katie Hopkins!
