    Got a Job Planning Thinking

    I recently received a job offer for a position as a marketing coordinator at a local startup. The catch is that I haven't completed my degree yet; I'm just a few credits short of graduating. The company seems excited about my skills and experience, but they're concerned about my lack of a diploma. I'm currently weighing my options—should I accept the offer and explain my situation, or should I hold off until I graduate? I really want this opportunity, but I'm worried about how the lack of a diploma might affect my future with the company.

    Applied to a Job Feeling Thinking

    I'm feeling really down about my job search. I've been looking for a position for about two years now, and it feels like I'm hitting a wall. I've been ghosted more times than I can remember and have faced rejection from every interview I've had. Just recently, I went through a grueling 8-hour onsite interview with around 10 people, only to be told two weeks later that I wasn't selected. It was disheartening. I had some hope when I applied for a new position and had a great conversation with HR. She seemed enthusiastic and mentioned she would reach out soon. I ended up interviewing with two directors, and while I felt it went well, I was still nervous. One director even mentioned that they were in the early stages and that a background check would be the next step, which sounded promising. However, the very next day, I saw that the job was reposted on LinkedIn. I know this doesn't necessarily mean I've been rejected, but it feels like a punch to the gut. I thought I had connected well during the interview, and I really can't understand why I'm not getting any traction. I'm qualified and personable, yet I feel like I'm stuck in this endless loop of disappointment.
