Gen Z faces unprecedented rejection in various life aspects

Gen Z faces unprecedented levels of rejection in various aspects of life, including dating, college admissions, and job hunting. Many young adults report feeling anxious and demoralized as they encounter frequent "no" responses, leading to a sense of despair. The job market is particularly challenging, with Gen Z applicants submitting hundreds of applications and often receiving no feedback. This has resulted in a feeling of disconnection and diminished self-worth among many, as they struggle to find meaningful employment. Despite these challenges, some Gen Zers are adapting by pursuing passion projects or alternative career paths. The reliance on technology in these processes has created a sense of resignation, as many view their experiences as a numbers game rather than a reflection of their abilities.
