Got direct feedback from one that I lacked skills in fast growing startups and two feedbacks that I wasn't a fit (even though I had all requirements in the job description). So that got me wondering what I could improve.

I think I'm competing with fresh graduates. I applied at startups with 20-200 employees initially. Really looking for that experience of taking something of the ground and scaling.

I know we shouldn't take rejections too seriously but reality is it was always easy for me to find a job. Maybe I've been too picky and overestimated my skills, maybe companies are being too picky now. I'm not sure but I'm thinking hard about this.
