Apply for other jobs. Don't get discouraged. Keep applying until someone accepts you. I know it's disheartening to be rejected.

Don't get down on yourself. There are so many people looking for jobs now and the competition is so tough. Start looking for another job ASAP. Most of us have gotten turned down more then once, but all it takes is one company to say yes. Be optimistic because it shows when you are being interviewed. Best of luck.
