For some, it might be just a handful (maybe 5-10) before landing something. For others, especially in tough job markets or when aiming for specific roles, it can be way more – think dozens, even over a hundred rejections.

The "shit storm" feeling is real, but try to remember that each "no" gets you closer to a "yes." Keep learning from each interview, refine your approach, and don't give up. Your "one job" is out there.
