Rejecting Rejections 2.0

I once cold-emailed someone pitching myself for a job.

‍

They rejected me.

‍

Apparently, my outreach wasn't personalized enough.

‍

But I rejected their rejection, wrote a personalized email back to them, and re-emphasized why I was a good fit.

‍

They didn't reply so I followed up.

‍

And then, finally, they did.

‍

There’s nothing more satisfying than turning a no into a yes.

‍

Always push back. Always follow up.

‍

Here's a screenshot of our interaction below.
