should I apply Again

Post by sky1 »

Hi, well I had the interview but I guess I was not what they were looking for. Recieved an email stating that I could re-apply . I was just wondering what you guys think. Has anyone else been turned down, re-apply and get in the second time around. Thanks

yup, took a year and change to get the second interview. It is still the best choise I could have made. (Waiting it out that is)

Most of the reasons I hear for not getting hired are.....

Not prepared for the interview, the interviewers can really tell.
Just on the line for requirements. (just build a little more time, they are really trying to get away from extra training if they can)
Sometimes the interviewer and the interviewee do not see I to I about issues. If the 3 do not agree, well you are not going to be offered a job. I did not have the same interviewers a year later. WHich I think in my instance was good.

Incidentaly, it was like I got kicked in the gut when I got turned down. I got over it though, slowly. At the end of the wait, if successful, is great and well worth the wait!

I think the record is three tries...My buddy was hired on the third attempt. Another friend was hired on the second try. I believe they look back and see what the issue for non-hire was. If it was borderline you will more than likely get a re-try. Best wishes !!

Thanks guys, I will admit I took it very hard but to be honest I did feel coming out of the interview that I could have done much better. I have applied again and hope that things go better next time. Again thank you.

Apply again for sure. I got hired on the third try and am glad I kept trying.

If you don't apply again, they definitely won't call you...will they? Pretty simple decision, I say 8)
