So unfortunately I didn't get the medical assistant job
They picked someone else even when they said they liked my qualifications/qualities which sucks even more. It's not like I REALLY wanted the job or anything, since it sounded like a literal nightmare workload-wise, but I'm still disappointed about the missed opprotunity. My other classmate told the class group chat that one of the places she got hired at that I got rejected by is hiring for medical assistants...ffs
I've applied to 15 medical assistant jobs already, and I've only gotten 2 interviews which have both rejected me, with the majority of my applications not getting any responses at all..
It really gets to you after some time, and in all honesty, I had a full-blown meltdown this morning about this job market.
I'm frustrated that I worked hard to get a bachelor's degree, and that didn't work out, and now I've got another degree and now THAT'S not working out. I'm even more angry that some of my classmates that I KNOW haven't had to work nearly as hard as me to get any kind of career break got a job within a month while I'm left with literally nothing. I know life isn't fair and I'm not owed a job, but the system feels corrupt and unfair. If I was an employer, I'd pick the people with a bachelor's degree first and pick the other people without them last.
What gets to me is the fact that one of the jobs I got rejected by picked my classmate that knew Spanish and has the same amount of experience as me, and I'm sure the second one could have been the same way. It's bordering on racism and I hate it! 
I understand employers have to be picky, but it's beginning to feel like I'm being singled out for being unlikable or something. I wonder if they can pick up on the fact that I'm neurodivergent and discriminated me based on that...
Anyways I'm pissed off and fed up with this job market. "Keep applying!" I HAVE. "Write cover letters" I HAVE. "Go in and submit your resume!" IT'S A DOCTOR'S OFFICE...I CAN'T!!
I'm not sure what to even do at this point. I feel guilty that I'm 26 years old and still living at my parents house and mooching off of them. I'm not anywhere where I expected myself to be career-wise at this point..
Idk, hopefully my big break is coming soon. Maybe I'm gonna have to get religious and pray to God...
