If they turned you down a year ago and you have added something valuable to your resume, why wouldn't you have a shot? If you sat on your thumbs for a year, chances are you haven't made yourself a more appealing candidate, and you will likely be passed again. However, if you have shown growth and continued interest, you should reapply.

 

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.
