Rejected last year, CV did not change much, should I apply with a new account?

Hello everyone, 

I got rejected by a BB last year after a couple of rounds, and due to some health issue I was not able to do any internship last year, so my resume did not change that much. 

Should I apply this year using a new account/ email or use the usual one? What worries me is that they might see that the resume stayed pretty much the same and will reject right away. 

Thank you for your time.

New accounts won't change anything, it's a well-known strategy and there are other ways to identify that you're the same person.

But from my read your CV was NOT the reason you were rejected, correct? They admitted you to interview. I'd make a note either / both on your CV that you had health issues preventing you from doing an internship.
