Regardless of where you're applying this year I'd say make sure you focus your application on specific roles, highlight your work and personal projects (over academics) and don't treat interview results as a reflection of personal worth. Good luck with your job hunt !.

In the beginning of my career I often beat myself up (not literally!) over rejections and it contributed to my imposter syndrome. I realized later that job interviews look for very specific skills and are definitely not (and can't) be a comprehensive assessment of one's personal skills; or a predictor of future success.
