    I did that once and it legitimately spurred another outreach from the COO at the time (small company) which then led to me being allowed to make a case for my hiring again and actually led to a job offer. So you never know?

      I did it once, the first time they just sent a no email. The sub cond time the hiring manager messaged me on LinkedIn a bit annoyed telling me no again. I looked them up recently as I was recently fired and I don’t think that company exists anymore.

      The absolute worst case is that you slightly annoy the HR/TA at the company and they reject you again with a slightly annoyed letter.

      Most likely case is that the same garbage AI system that rejected you the first time just rejects you again.

      And best-case you get your case heard again and get hired, even if just for the perseverance.

      So I don’t see why not, an employment relationship is not like personal relationships where “no means no”, it’s not like you’re stalking the company.

        Can it be like I’m stalking the company? I mean, if companies are persons now, I wouldn’t mind being such a pain in the ass that a company takes out a restraining order on me.

    I once applied to the same position I was fired from. They let me go for refusing to return to office towards the tail end of COVID. Advertised the position as 100% remote, so I figured they’d come to their senses. Never heard from them. 🤣

        I know. That position had a particularly obnoxious marketing person in a technical lead position. No idea how they ended up there.

      Some companies have a policy to advertise a job even if they are giving the job internally.

        Usually that works differently: Hiring managers may be required (by law or upper management) to advertise a job publicly but make sure „their“ candidate, which may also be external, gets the job.

        However this does not fit ops scenario as they would neither need nor want to advertise twice.

    Did you follow up with an email? Did you do a deep search of the company and the person doing the interview? Did you smile during your interview? Did you ask about salary?

    I literally got my last job this way. 4th one and I got a formal follow up and was hired. Seems like their Agentic HR system was just incompetent though.
