Can't you move out of the flat sooner if your flatmate has a replacement?

Try not to focus on the rejection letter, ive had plenty. Ernest Hemingway had 8 years worth of them before he first got published, now thats some dedication.

Ignore the rejection letters and try to think about your potential employer seeing you as an asset.

Think about what you have to offer them, and for the ones that reject you just think at what theyre missing out on having passed you over. That way you can stay a little more positive about the whole situation. If you believe that you can do the job when you apply for it, why change that belief after spending 10 or 15 minutes with someone on the phone who has only your voice and a few answers to go on.

Telephone interviews are truly awful, personally i think that theyre a very lazy, half assed way to find an employee, and it doesnt show either side in the best light.

p.s. i hope you and family arent caught up in that awful earthquake situation, first australia with floods and cyclones, then our friends across the ditch...not a good year all around.

I could but I don't feel like cartering to her needs. I'm quite happy not moving for now. I've got stuff I need to sort out... address changes etc.
