阅读理解BI received a rejection email 2 weeks after interviewing for a postdoc position. When I read it, I felt angry because I didn't even know why I wasn't successful. After applying for a job at a consulting company, I got a phone call from a company representative. "Unfortunately, we decided to offer the job to someone else," the voice said. Again I felt discouraged. But the conversation wasn't over. The representative went on to tell me I hadn't clearly expressed my motivation for applying for the position and why I wanted to work for the company. The feedback (反馈) was tough to hear. But I quickly realized he was right. From then on, I decided to carefully evaluate each job opening and only pursue the ones that I was passionate about. In my applications, I also began stating more clearly why I wanted that particular job. Soon the approach started to pay off, as I got an offer for a postdoc position in Poland that I was truly excited about. A few years later, I found myself on the other side of the interview table. As a freshly hired group leader, I was interviewing candidates for the first Ph. D. position in my lab. I was particularly looking forward to talking with one candidate; on paper, his application looked great-nice CV, good recommendations, strong cover letter. But the interview went badly. He didn't seem to have done any reading in advance about the research I was doing, which made me wonder whether he was truly interested in working with me. When I called to tell him I couldn't offer him the position, I asked him if he wanted to know where he could improve in future interviews. As the conversation went on, I got the sense that he was grateful for what I said. I've since filled several positions in my lab. For each recruitment (招募), I've made a point to treat every interview as a trade: Candidates invest time and effort to prepare for our conversation-and if they don't get the position, the least I can do is reward their effort with pointers on how they can improve. （1）  How did the author feel after the conversation with the representative?
