Pre-Ph.D.

During 2016/2017 I applied to only one (!) Ph.D. program. I managed to get shortlisted for the interview, and then rejected - notably, as the worst candidate and as "unfit for research".  Keep up the good work, Milan State University!

During 2017/2018 I applied seven Ph.D. programs. I managed to get shortlisted for the interview in two, and then I was rejected in both. 

I managed to enroll in a Ph.D. only because someone else left - and I got offered the position as a plan B.

​

During the Ph.D.

A countless number of rejected abstract + 8 rejection from mid to good tier journals (Erkenntnis, Mind & Language etc) Some of these rejected paper can be downloaded here, roughly in the version in which they have been rejected.

​

After the Ph.D.

During 2021/2022 I applied for 17(!!) post-doc & related positions. I managed to get shortlisted 4 times, and won only one a one year fellowship

During 2022/2023 I applied for 19 positions thus far. Got shortlisted thrice. Won one. 

​

Postdoc and after: I have decided to make public where my papers have been rejected. So check on the paper itself to see my respectably long list of rejections. 
I will still add any major roadblock here.
