Folks, a couple of months back I got referred for a role in FB. Had a decent chat with the recruiter but she went silent for a few weeks and later replied I don’t fit the profile. Now today, another recruiter from the same office reached out for the same role. Should I mention this happened when I get on a call with her? My profile will eventually go to the same team, so expecting to get rejected again. 🤷🏽♂️
Don't say anything. Treat it as a second chance :-)
You have to be severely socially stunted if you didn’t make it past a recruiter screen.
Update: Recruiter shared multiple open positions on his own. I told him what had happened and he said that’s okay because that role was very specialised. He wants to push me for 2 roles. Fingers crossed! Took the honesty road. Thanks, Peeps!
Tell the truth. Recruiter will find another recruiter for you.
For another role?
Different team ( Live Video, AR, 360, Oculus, Insta ) or location
