Ouch! It's hard not to be depressed when a job interview goes well but I still don't get an offer. Oh well, I know things will look up sooner or later. My problem is kind of the opposite of yours I guess in that I've got the work experience but not the formal training. I get the feeling employers are holding out nowadays for the "perfect" fit, and aren't willing to take a chance on someone with potentials but lacking credentials.

Yeah, it kinda feels like a "buyer's market" for employers: they can afford to be picky when there's a surplus of qualified workers. Ugh.
