There were some positives that in my disappointment yesterday I forgot to mention. Both the other candidates had way more experience than I did (I know them both; one b/c I used to work with her and the other from a local professional network). However I was told the reason they had taken so long to decide is b/c it was a very close run thing. I understand I would have been second choice. Not usually what I would want to hear but given what I've just said about experience I'm quite proud of myself. The girl who got the job is the right person for it and I took the time to send her a congratulations text.
