A bit of background first; I'm moving to Australia this September and have already started sending out job applications.

I sent out my first 4 applications last week (kinda low, but it's tricky to find suitable roles) and got my first rejection letter yesterday. No big deal, but I know that it'll bother me for the next while.

Why did they reject me? Did my application even get past AI screening? Questions that aren't even worth thinking about normally but I'm not really normal I guess.

If they didn't provide a reason, just assume they found someone who was a better fit for their needs. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you.

    Doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you.

    Absolutely, but I can't help feeling bad about it. It's not about facing rejection I think, more that they're not giving any reason. I'm not even sure what I'm expecting though.
