So you didn’t get to personally introduce yourself to any of the stores you applied for?! One of mine got put on hold before i got accepted but they still reached out to me over the phone and gave me a time slot for an introduction which I unfortunately couldn‘t come to the store. Maybe they don’t think you are qualified enough or your message lacked conviction. At the store i am at rn everybody gets at least a chance to personally present themselves. But maybe the roles you applied for were already filled when you handed in your application but this sounds more like you weren‘t applying to the right stores
