Rejection is universal, yet seldom discussed openly. Each episode, hosted by podcaster and professional job seeker, Rebekah Sebastian, explores the most heartbreaking, hilarious, or hellish job rejection stories from job seekers just like you — a reminder that rejection happens to the best of us.
From being ghosted after nailing an audition, to bombing a high stakes interview, listen in as we laugh, cry, and connect through the stories of rejection that shape us. So the next time you get the dreaded “Thank you for your interest” email, consider circling back to this podcast for some much needed solidarity.

What happens when a dream job disappears into thin air?
Today’s episode of Thank You for Your Interest feels like a good gossip sesh and you’re invited. Host Rebekah Sebastian interviews Morgan, an entertainment journalist who channeled her pandemic boredom into a booming business. When industry leaders took notice Morgan was sure her big break was just around the corner; but a passage of time and a social media discovery forced Morgan to re-evaluate everything.
Morgan’s optimism is contagious, sparking a lively debate between Rebekah and Samantha about their personal preferences for how they like to be rejected from a job.
Stick around for the Not Safe for Work (NSFW) segment at the end of the show, featuring listener voicemails. This week — Cody learns the hard way that first impressions don’t matter if nobody is there to meet you.
