Should I apply for a different position at the same company? ?

  • About two weeks ago, I had a second interview at an internet/educational company. They seemed to like me a lot and was seriously considering me. They said they'd get back to me after Thanksgiving. Today they told me they have found someone else for the position, although I noticed they put up a new post for the same position earlier this week.
    I really want to work for this company. It seems like I'd be a good fit. I saw a few other positions for this company that I think I can be good for. Should I apply for any of them? It is a small company, about 20 people total. So if I apply, they'll probably remember my name. Will I seem desperate if I apply for them again? And if I do apply, should I mention somewhere that I have already applied and been rejected for another position with them?


  • Sure, apply. It won't seem desperate, it will look like you are determined and persevere at things, are not a quitter!
    Don't mention that you have been rejected before, they will probably have you on file, but why point out a negative. Just apply, and see, maybe it will come up during the interview. Perhaps you didn't get the other job as maybe you were missing a qualification they needed, but that isn't saying you can't do something else.


  • call their HR dept and talk to the person who interviewed you and ask if they have any other positions that might be a good fit for you based on your background


  • I agree........won't hurt to try again........


  • Honestly, what have you got to lose by applying for another position? Yes, they may see your application, laugh, throw it away, and you won't be considered....but they could also see that you're obviously interested and bring you back for another interview.

    Personally, I'd risk the embarrassment and apply again. If you don't hear anything, then you will know, but at least you tried, right? I hope you do get another call back though!


  • Just let it go. You know they don't really want you anyway. They were being nice to all the candidates. You were just too naive to realize that and they didn't want to hurt your feeling. There will be other jobs that will fit you. Let it go.
