This type of thing happens all the time when you live in a small city with only a handful of places that match your tech stack. Recruiters often send you jobs for companies that you were rejected by, or that you rejected during the interview process, since those instances won't appear on your resume.
- jdavis703 5y agoIsn’t it likely people grow though? Like I went through all the interviews at Google. Didn’t get an offer. They said maybe in the future. So I assume I wasn’t senior enough for the position. Years later and now HR is trying to recruit me. Perhaps this time I could solve their challenges better.
- capableweb 5y agoIt's possible people grow over time, it's also possible the company changes over time. As a company gets older, positions can require more specialists, so who they are looking for changes. Also, bigger companies can afford to hire lower-skilled employees to train internally if they have a good amount of seniors, compared to when they just start out and require almost everyone to be a senior in order to just survive and reaching any sort of success.
- francisofascii 5y agoYes, and I hope companies and employees reconsider each other in the future. Sometimes companies have a hang-up about rehiring an employee that voluntarily left (I heard Bloomberg is an example), or some employees vow never to return to X company.
