I did that once and it legitimately spurred another outreach from the COO at the time (small company) which then led to me being allowed to make a case for my hiring again and actually led to a job offer. So you never know?
I did it once, the first time they just sent a no email. The sub cond time the hiring manager messaged me on LinkedIn a bit annoyed telling me no again. I looked them up recently as I was recently fired and I don't think that company exists anymore.
Can it be like I'm stalking the company? I mean, if companies are persons now, I wouldn't mind being such a pain in the ass that a company takes out a restraining order on me.
I once applied to the same position I was fired from. They let me go for refusing to return to office towards the tail end of COVID. Advertised the position as 100% remote, so I figured they'd come to their senses. Never heard from them. 🤣
Usually that works differently: Hiring managers may be required (by law or upper management) to advertise a job publicly but make sure „their“ candidate, which may also be external, gets the job.
However this does not fit ops scenario as they would neither need nor want to advertise twice.
Did you follow up with an email? Did you do a deep search of the company and the person doing the interview? Did you smile during your interview? Did you ask about salary?
I literally got my last job this way. 4th one and I got a formal follow up and was hired. Seems like their Agentic HR system was just incompetent though.
ive seen then do on several occasion, reject, post the same job like 6months later with more requirements, then tested it again they added more requirements the next time.

Maybe the company wouldn’t have died if they hired him!

The absolute worst case is that you slightly annoy the HR/TA at the company and they reject you again with a slightly annoyed letter.
Most likely case is that the same garbage AI system that rejected you the first time just rejects you again.
And best-case you get your case heard again and get hired, even if just for the perseverance.
So I don't see why not, an employment relationship is not like personal relationships where "no means no", it's not like you're stalking the company.

hides in nearby tree waiting for the next applicant so I can karate chop their balls to prevent them from applying
Nobody will get the job except me.

The people who sign the paychecks don't like having to admit that one of the peons was right.

I know. That position had a particularly obnoxious marketing person in a technical lead position. No idea how they ended up there.

I did that and got an email saying that I had already applied for the job.

That sounds promising. A company that does good bookkeeping. I'd wanna work there.
IronBird@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 218d
it's a wonder anything gets done at all, when you see how seemingly 99% of business is conducted
hessenjunge@discuss.tchncs.de · 16 pts · 217d
Maybe that job does not exist and the job listings are just there to make the company appear thriving and growing.

Some companies have a policy to advertise a job even if they are giving the job internally.
