Another one done and another one without an offer. After getting laid off, I'm getting interviews, but I'm not getting the job! Damn!

Change up what you are doing. Places like you for some reason. Sit back and think about what you are doing wrong then tackle the next interview...

If you don't get any responses from the employer at all when you get the position, there's absolutely nothing wrong with ringing up and asking why you didn't get it. Shows you've got cojones, too.

Well, the last three companies I've talked to were different enough to think that my background didn't align with their work.

^ I'd rather not divulge that information over the interwebz, but one was a hosting/domain registration company, and the other two were advertising agencies. all of them liked my work, but they agreed that i did not have enough experience for the job and my background didn't work with them.
- may i ask how many years of work experience you got?akrokdesign
- The ad agencies, does one of them start with an "L"?iCanHazQBN
- no L, and I have one year exp. doing UX. i did UX at my college, so i guess all together 3.studderine

With the advent of the internet, why is it so hard to reply to the applicants that the position has been filled or whatever other answer that they give when you don't get the job?

i had one that offer me a really low salary per week freelance. i said ok. and he showed me the rest of the firm and people. then later, he didn't answer the emails. not even the co worker that he said, i would be working with. some are just assholes.
- this is so true.studderine
- It happened to me , but it was a small stipend internship. No email replies or calls returned.kgvs72

None of my interviews have involved fucking, but I can imagine it might be intimidating
