Final round rejection pity party

Fadeeeeee bro I just got cucked in the final round at a PE firm I really wanted. After getting rejected from every investment bank too. 4.0 target great experience and solid social skills I really don’t know anymore. Is god pointing me in a direction far far away from IB/PE??
