Hi,
Any chance you received - either via e-mail or phone call - a feedback for your rejection?
For instance, if I would have received a feedback like "You are not enough structured in the cases resolution", I believe they would expect me to prepare more than 3 months before applying. I believe the answer could be in your feedback.
If you didn't receive any, I would directly write to the person who sent you the e-mail/person you talked to during the selection process and directly ask to them if you could re-apply (and maybe a feedback to do better next time) or there is a cool-down period. I would go with "I truly care about this role, I believe is the right one for me, ..." and so on, just to let them know you are really committed.
Thank you for your valuable feedback. No, I did not receive any feedback for the role. I did mail the recruiter but did not receive any reply as well. The rejection email was a standard "After careful consideration of your application, we have concluded not to proceed with your candidacy for the Business Presentation Specialist position at this time."
Mh, understood. Any chance there is a phone number you can call in the signature of the person sending the e-mail? It's better to ask when to re-apply directly to the person (again, to show true committment). Alternatively, could you share the "when" you got the rejection in the selection process? Like you sent the CV and they rejected you, you were admitted for an interview, you went through the whole process.. This would also help you to understand what went wrong
I was rejected at the screening for the process in May. However, I got someone to refer me who works in that very division and told me that she felt that the problem lied with how I presented myself in the resume and how to highlight my strengths in order to align myself with the job role.
Ok, so the problem is probably the CV. In that case I would advise you to wait at least 6 months before re-applying. I don't know if in the office you apply, the screening process is done by a machine or a human person. Of course, in case of a machine it wouldn't make any difference to re-apply now, but if I was a recruiter, I would believe that 3 months are a too small time to have developed "new" competences. And I would also "remember" you as a CV I have rejected. In 6 months the recruiter probably would remember less your specific CV and you can demonstrate to have learned "new" competences to be valuable for the role you want to apply. On the other side, I would suggest to really upgrade your CV to make it super fit for the role. I'm pretty good with CVs, if you feel like it, drop me a message and we can schedule a discounted session to analyze it a work on it a bit!
Sure thing. I will do that soon and take the advice as you suggested!
