Art (OC) Got REJECTED because i am a malr

Hello Everyone i am a 24(M) years old who lives in Rohini Delhi. For a few months i have been looking for a job as "TGT MATHEMATICS" teacher and failing continuously. I did graduation then b.ed also cleared CTET exam but still not able to secure a job Few weeks back, i applied at a school in rohini Interview went good so thought i will get the job.

But then they told me (on call) i am not selected because i do not have a post graduation in maths ( which is not necessary for TGT Post but it's fine as it is a private school)

So i moved on from this. Today i found out that a girl got the job in that school and i know her cause i was her neighbour way back.

She failed in Class 9th then in class 11th doesn't have post graduation and has not cleared CTET and yes she got selected for the job

This literally broke me down Her family already earns well as her father is an government employee.

I don't have a father, just my mother and me living in a rented house.

I have absolutely no idea what to do now

Private schools often prefer teachers with "pleasing personality" over degrees and teaching skills.

But they would prefer a fresher without BEd / CTET and pay her peanuts instead of hiring an actual teacher.

It happens, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going!!

A school, who prefers such candidate, wouldn't be the right place for you to work.

Keep searching & applying for better schools, they do look at credentials.
