Could I Try Them Again?


Question Posted Thursday June 11 2009, 9:49 am

Back in May (last month I guess you can say), I applied and had an interview with this job. I really would love working there, but I was not chosen as a candidate for the position, since of course they found better candidates.

Well I just saw they posted an ad on the internet about looking for more employees for the same position and company. I have much interest in working there (since having experience in the field), and I love their work environment.. so is it possible I could contact them again and see if they can give me a second chance?

Thanks for the time into reading this, and your response(s)!

HELL YEAH! Why not?

I mean maybe they'll realize your great for the job and give you a chance to work there.

And that you won't give up on things you want and that means you won't give up on getting work done.

Good Luck =]=]

Absolutely, it shows that you are committed to something. They will most likely contact you again because the same thing happened to me. I couldn't get into a management position at Family Dollar the first time because they found someone more qualified. Well, that manager quit so I applied again. They gave me another interview and I got the job. I eventually quit but the point is that they really like dedication. Applying again would definitely tip in your favor.

If the ad is recent, you could give it a try. But they probably rejected you for a reason, whatever the reason is. Companies really have the oppurtunity to pick and choose these days, since many people are out of a job. Don't be offended if you aren't chosen, there is ALWAYS someone a little more qualified for a position. But that isn't the only part. Making a good impression and having a good personality is key.

Modify your resume so they don't feel like their reading the same thing again, because time is money. Let them know you are passionate about working for them.

Good luck,

-Abby

I say go for it!

You only live once and if you really want the job, then go for the job.


Just make sure that if they have a question or a box to check asking if you have applied before, that you answer with "Yes, but was not chosen as a candidate. But I still have much interest in working for the company." or something like that.


Good luck :)
