All citing my lack of experience as the main reason I didn't get the job on offer. To be fair, the ones I actually got interviewed for were not junior designers. All mid-weight. But still. Its sapped my designer life force to a non-existant state. Apart from my one day a week design career (unpaid)  and an infrequent freelance bus
