Don't loose faith. With a single company giving feedback, you probably got already 50% of all feedbacks you can get. Your effort for asking all the others was already worth it.
On top of that, most of the feedback will reflect what state the company is in or what kind of people they are looking for, and not necessarily you or your skills. Eg. they want a deeply technical person, or a good communicator. In one year, for the same position, they will want a different set of skills.
If you know a lot of prospective companies, experiment with your CV / introduction and try to A/B test what is working. This is totally under your control.
- scrapcode 2y agoThank you for the valuable feedback, and positive nudge. I am trying to get creative in how I introduce myself to organizations to make a good first impression without coming off as "creepy," i.e. trying to connect or send a message with hiring managers on LI for example.
- scarface_74 2y agoI will tell you unless you have a really specialized skillset that I’m looking for (full stack developer is not specialized), if I reply at all to unsolicited message, I’m just going to tell you to go through the standard ATS funnel. Of course if we worked together before and you impressed me, I’ll go through the standard internal referral process.
