A few days ago, I got bad news: I was not selected for the (permanent) position I applied for. I wanted to write some threads about that, to discuss what went wrong, and maybe avoid this situation to other. I think a good name for it is #AnatomyOfAFailure. This is part 1 ⤵️ 
First of all, I must say I don't feel too disappointed, and here is why:
1⃣ I have a family to take care of, and feeling low doesn't help.
2⃣ There are still many projects to deal with, I cannot stop to work because I did not get a position.

3⃣ Only 2 or 3 persons were selected in my university. Which means it can be scientists from any domain: math, physics, history, psychology, virology...
So the success rate is very low.
