Jobs

I've had mixed employment for last five years. This means that jobs never bloomed into careers. With that being said, I would like to say that I've been looking for long term, full time, and career path employment for about 2 years now.
So I put in about 10 applications this week. So far I've had 4 no and 3 no replies. So I was working with this particular one. Had a phone interview yesterday that I thought went ok at best. The person that interviewed me, referred me to go to the next step, another phone interview assessment. Well that was scheduled for this afternoon. Again was scheduled for this afternoon. It's not going to happen. Why? Because they decided to go with another candidate that was better qualified. Well this starts the whole, we will keep your application on file for any future positions that meet your qualifications, line. I'm a little upset about this but more so about the fact that there was nothing constructive to help me become a better candidate.

It seems that I'm going to fall through the existential crack.
Under-qualified and over-qualified to work in this tough job market that is too narrow and experience specific.
