Moorhead, MN (WDAY TV) – He was once called “the most rejected man in America.”

But now, Daniel Seddiqui is explaining how he turned his failures into opportunities.

Tuesday, he shared his story with students at MSUM.

After college, Seddiqui was rejected from 40 different job interviews, but he went on to work in 50 different jobs in all 50 states.

Daniel Seddiqui- ‘World’s Most Ambitious Job Seeker: “I was rejected so much and so often that I became numb to the process. And once I learned to kind of take that out of the equation, that’s when life really became what I chose it to be.”
