I applied to a bank last year as a sophomore, got rejected. I'm now applying as a Junior on their website and they have my email saved so I have to use my old account. Will they look down on the fact that they already rejected me?





Yeah, I wouldn't apply if I
Yeah, I wouldn't apply if I was you. They are going to "look down on you" big time for re-applying.

Scenario 1: You apply and you get the job
Scenario 2: You apply and you don't get the job

Be realistic. The way most recruiting teams look at this is you are either a. have perseverance or b. have been rejected once so don't need another consideration. Do you really care if a bank that doesn't hire you "looks down on you?" No. When you become a BSD, you can hire them just so you can make them janitors at your bank before you fire them.
