Should I reapply for a job that was reposted after being rejected?

Why is my job reposted after an interview on Reddit?

This is a repost from one of the more frequently-visited threads on Reddit; please consider checking out my new post on my employer's forum if you have a bit of time to kill.

It may very well be that the interview, or even an interviewee, has already been mentioned on Reddit - and it certainly was for me.

I thought I was just looking at my job posting on Reddit. My post has attracted exactly one upvote, so I didn't think anything of it. However, today I was reviewing some of my applications on the forums after the initial posting, when I saw another job posting.

At first, I wondered if the job was posted on Reddit before my post, and I was getting duplicate posts. This was a small post, and not that many people commented on it. I thought that perhaps this is why only one upvote? After all, the post was not on Reddit, right? Wrong! This post is actually my second job posting, which was posted on Reddit a few days ago.

In addition, the comments below the posts have since been deleted. They weren't really critical - they just pointed out what the job posting said. But someone took the liberty to delete them, and make it look like that my post was deleted somehow

At this point, I figured, well, that was a good opportunity to ask a question about the job posting. So I asked about my qualifications, as I wanted to use the opportunity to be clear about them. I received a reply asking for more details, and I wrote back saying that I need more information for you guys to see my real qualifications - there are many things I do. At this point, I waited and had the impression that they were going to call me.

It took another hour to reply, and I had some more questions about the job that I didn't get a response to. I have had this feeling that I am not going to hear back from them about my qualifications, because I haven't heard back yet. It was also my impression that they sent out tons of replies but are not getting back to everyone. This wasn't too upsetting, though, because the process was supposed to take a few weeks. I had heard that from interviews I had, that it was a couple of weeks to a month or more.

Is it bad if a job is reposted?

It's been at the top of the list for weeks.

I just looked and it's back on there so, what is bad about it? I'm not going to delete my account if it helps someone else!

Yes, it might be hard for some to look at the original thread but sometimes I think you can't learn by looking only at one thread. Also threads sometimes have an effect like newbies often have a tendency to re-post. It means they can see there mistake and correct it in this time.

If it is helpful for someone else though that is great, sometimes there are things which may seem obvious or known to us which are very hard for others to identify. Not everyone wants to do their own homework.

Some people say if you are worried about being blocked you need not post. As much as we don't want to be blocked, in actual fact with the spam issue and so on this can be quite positive.

I didn't know anything about the "worry about being blocked" thing until today so I was a bit surprised. But I am not sure I entirely agree with you on the spambots. I was a bit surprised when someone posted a comment on how to recognize spam in a thread. They just put their name and email and said:

But, if you get used to identifying spam in this manner, you will never be blocked by SpamAssassin. I personally think it is a great thing! However, it just doesn't work. If spam filtering only works when spammers leave their details and a few lines of rubbish then that would hardly be a very useful tool. I'm always amazed at this kind of self help! It is a bit too obvious that you can't learn something from someone's mistakes if they don't show any mistakes.

I wonder if some people can't even learn properly because they make their own mistakes. I remember reading a story once of a man who went through life saying "I must be mad! I did such and such." Because he kept doing the same stupid thing over and over again.

I don't think you should expect 100% perfection from people or groups especially when you do know that they will eventually learn anyway. We cannot expect perfect spelling (unless your first language was English and you were writing in Spanish!) We just need to aim at the next best thing and that is usually quite good!

Why do companies post jobs that are already filled?

How else can they possibly attract the talented employees they need?

This is another way to fill the pipeline.

The problem with this approach is that it takes a lot of time to fill the position; companies often spend years doing due diligence and researching the ideal applicant. If the company decides to fill the job internally, the position still has to go through the same process: candidate assessments, interviews, documentation of experience, and selection by committee. If the company does nothing, the job is eventually filled externally.

In the long term, the company is sacrificing a key part of its employee recruiting success. If the company can't find, develop, and hire the right people for a job, the business will fail. If we're going to succeed as an economy, we need to change this process and improve recruitment speed.

A Faster Path to Firing. The faster companies can find, develop, and fire poor performers, the better. This means companies must recruit talent quickly, identify them early on in the application process, and make sure they are properly motivated and productive. By making the process fast, companies can get more employees on board, get more quality people to accept jobs, and get off-the-job learning quickly.

As I mentioned above, most internal hiring is slow and inefficient. You might think a company is investing time, effort, and money in the hiring process, when in reality the actual hiring isn't happening. For example, HR spends a few hours per position interviewing internal applicants, reviewing their CVs, writing their reports, scheduling references checks, and maybe completing a simple psychometric test. The company spends very little time actually finding the best employee for the job. On the surface, the internal candidate has completed the entire hiring process but only in terms of appearance.

What if the company could cut this process in half? What if the actual recruiting, evaluating, testing, and interviewing was much faster? What if the company did all these things at once? What if companies could be hiring quickly, with less effort, cost, and time? The Talent Pipeline - Faster Hiring. According to McKinsey, there are about 2.7 million unfilled jobs in the US. About 1.
