How to pick myself back up after a rejection
Post Body

The constant rejection is starting to affect my anxiety and I cant even focus on my schoolwork anymore. I have applied to over a hundred companies for computer science as a junior right now and I cant even get past resume screening for any of them even though I have previous experience. Only interviews I have gotten are with companies I got referrals too which even then, I do not pass no matter how hard I study for them. Just yesterday I had an Amazon final round which I prepared for over a month with my friend who was the one who referred me. I even thought it went really well, but today I got rejected again. The stress of finding an internship over the summer especially because im a junior is starting to take me over and I cant sleep at night. How do I persuade myself that its going to be okay? I constantly subconsciously compare myself to my siblings (who all work at big tech FAANG companies) and my friends who are stressed because they have TOO MANY OFFERS to choose from and dont know which one they like the most... I feel like no matter how many more companies I apply to its ending up the same.
