Academic vicious cycle

If there is a good player in sports, all teams want to draft the person as if there are no other players. This is also true in academia, as it is kind of sports, where brains play the ball. If you are in the job market, good luck. Most likely there will be a more attractive person, which gets all the interviews and you'll be left without anything. Rest assured that it is not because you're not worthy of those positions, it is that human nature, which is best explained with why all the flies are attracted to one distant star. A majority of them will fail to get the star, but this vicious cycle will go on. No one will learn a lesson. So human, so flawed. Keep your heads up and breathe. Let it go.
