Forecast: continued unemployment
The worst thing about the legal profession is that you can go on the state bar's website and see who got the jobs that you unsuccessfully interviewed for. I really wish that this wasn't possible. I would rather believe that the person who got the job I coveted was a superwoman (or man) who practically invented public interest law. I don't like knowing that the winner of my job is an ordinary student, who is no more qualified than I am. That means that I have to take a hard look at why I didn't get the job instead, and there are no easy answers to that question.
I am starting to think that I must be terrible at interviews. During law school, I would get almost every job I interviewed for. That streak was broken when I started looking for post-grad work. Obviously, I am not selling myself very well at these things. I just need to find out where I am going wrong.
Ugh.
