Looking for a job that you have always dreamed of is one of the hardest and sometimes, depressing thing to do. A week after a job interview call the company and talk to the person who interviewed you and inquire about the status of your application. Don't expect them to call you back even if they said so during the interview, oftentimes they don't mean what they say. If they don't hire you, thank them for the interview opportunity and ask them what are the factors that made them hire the other person. Take this as a constructive criticism and build yourself up from their comments. Don't take it personally, your qualifications might not be suited to their requirements. Following-up your applications gives the impression that you are very much interested to work for them. And knowing the reasons why you were not hired will answer your question, "What do you think could be the problem?". Good luck on your job-hunting? Just take a positive approach to your situation. Don't give up, your dream job might just be an interview away.

It is really hard to know seeing as we don't know you, maybe it is just because so many people are also going for the jobs, maybe it is because somewhere in the future there is something waiting for you, something better, so one day hopefully things will worl out for you...

there are a lot of reasons for one being not accepted for the job. maybe the job your're applying for requires specialization or in some you might be over qualified or lack of experience. be patient in due time you will get one.
