Lots of interviews, no job offer

I know that my resume is not the problem otherwise I wouldn't be getting so many calls. I must be messing it up on the interviews or is it that hard to get an offer?

Anyone knows what could be a deal breaker during an interview???

Are you interviewing in the city or long island? What industry? I've been looking too, had 4 interviews 1 I turned down after the 1st round, 1 rejected me. Last 2 went great but still no answer back.

Could it be the Industry? I know for me in accounting I am up against a lot of ppl with CPA certification and or MBAs. Also Coming From NYC I am looking for a higher salary than some LI companies want to pay.

Hope we both find something soon!!

I'm in finance and looking on Long Island only. I've been to 6 different interviews so far. I'm getting discouraged.
Good luck! I hope you get a call back from any of the two!

I've been reading a lot about interviewing. I know they say be enthusiastic. Not over the top; but enthusiastic and likable.

Keep your head up and if you really need a job, maybe look into temp work.
I went on 55 interviews in 22 months before I got hired after being laid off. I'm am in the insurance industry. I think part of it was salary and part of it was discrimination against my weight. I had 5.5 years experience but also spread out to legal or admin assistant which I had 5 years of each of those (some combined).
I sent thank you letter and emails for each interview. If I got a rejection email I would ask if there was anything I could have done differently but rarely got a response. The few responses I got were that I was close or one of the two candidates or the other person fit better, wanted less money.
