Interview success can depend on how you schedule interviews
I have a few as well:- You will face rejection (likely a lot).  Don't take this personally and don't let it affect your confidence.- Unless you are an outstanding interviewee, this is like a skill/muscle which you need to develop and practice.  Hence ensure that you don't schedule your "dream job/company" early in the process.  Keep practicing.- Always have a beginner / practice mindset. Otherwise, you will accept the first (suboptimal) offer that you get as you will hate the interview rigmarole.   Interviewing is annoying / painful.  Accept it and work through it.- Keep applying and talking to companies even after you have started negotiations.  There have been companies which have told me that another candidate accepted before me( and hence the position is no longer available) even when they have "granted me time" to make my decision.  Similarly companies rescind offers.- Blowing hot(too many interviews in a short while) and cold (no interviews / interviews for a while) can be debilitating to your confidence.  Hence ensure that you have a pipeline of interviews so you are talking to at least 1 company a week.- Take notes and reflect on your performance in each interview and how you can do better.
