Topic Name: 3rd round ding -- reapply?
Message Name: TDSL
Date Posted: 12/24/2005
Message: Got dinged in round 3 for APD, feedback from principal indicated a significant misunderstanding of the way performance is measured in my current profession. He recommended that I reapply in 2 years. Since the ding (as he described it) was based mostly on a misunderstanding, can I reapply in one year? Or will an application at that point not be taken seriously, given the principal's recommendation? He said they really liked me and debated whether or not to hire me for a long time, and strongly encouraged me to reapply......but I'll be entrenched in another job in two years, so it's either reapply in a year, or not at all. Thanks for any insight anyone can give!
