Does this sound too desperate?
Hi all! For context, I went through the process with this firm twice, for 2 different positions. The first time, I got through the third round then got rejected. For the second time, I made it to the superday but did not get an offer (this process ended a month ago). Saw the job posting for the position that I made to superday today, is it ok if I apply / reach out to someone on the team? Thanks everyone!
was in the exact same situation not to long ago. I decided against it
did u apply cold or was it through warm contacts?
Hi! Thanks for the response! Both times were from warm contacts. May I ask why you decided against it?
same concern as yours. but also was a strong enough platform where I wanted to be in the future
Why tf wouldn’t you? Worst they can do is say no, again - not really that much to lose.
On the other hand, they could also see and value your continued persistence, which is an important trait.
If you want to work there, there’s only way to do that, and that’s by applying
I went thru a similar situation, and I think my thoughts could maybe benefit you:
I was interviewed for a position that someone reneged, made it to super day, but ultimately didn't get it as I was a sophomore at the time (was for my sophomore summer)
A few weeks later, I was contacted by a recruiter that liked my performance during said super day, and had me interviewed for a different position at another office. Bombed that.
Then, during my junior year, the same position that I first interviewed for from the same firm opened up, and applied because why not? A few interviews later I got the offer!
Yes it was unconventional but definitely worked. Worst case if they don't want you, then you can just move on from an auto reject email. But if they liked you then maybe it might work out this time.
Hope this helps.
