Sorry to hear you didn’t get the job but great news about your DD. Swings and roundabouts, such is life.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

That's brilliant about your daughter's courses, well done to her and her backing team (you). It's also somewhat comforting to know what tough opposition you were up against for your interview - and now those those are out of the away, there's more room for you next time. Sometimes there's virtually nothing to choose between individuals and it comes down to how well their previous experience fits with the job in question.
And what a great set of subjects your daughter has - I'd have loved those, with the exception of the Maths.
