Please wish me luck, or say a prayer for me! I am praying for all of us out there, particularly those of us in our mid-50s searching for a new role in which we can be happy, fulfilled and grow our careers (those of use not close to retirement)!
I am so tired of the rejection and tomorrow's interview seems like such a great position. I am trying hard to stay confident but it is not easy, since I have been rejected for so many roles.

OP is with a temp agency. The agency put her on the wrong client, meaning a 100% misfit for her skills. OP immediately saw it, and asked to be placed on another client. Agency removed her from the client, and didn't have work for her skills, background etc and then let her go.
OP did the ethical thing, and was penalized.
