I applied for a studentship at a famous university, got shortlisted, interviewed and rejected. Three years later, the people who interviewed me started publishing papers describing how they executed my project.

I applied for a post-doc fellowship at a famous university, got shortlisted, interviewed and rejected. Two years later, they are launching a conference exploring the ideas in my proposal.
