Should i apply for a vacancy with a company i refused a job offer with 5 months ago?

Question

i refused a job offer 5 months ago because my present company offered me a 'better package'- however, not long after I realised there had been no changes to my package. Now there is another vacancy with the company that originally offered me a job- should I apply?

Answer 1

Perhaps you should, yes.

Answer 2

yes.

Answer 3

Have you talked to your current boss about the delay in your "better package"? See what they say....If no changes are being made immediately, I would definitely submit my resume for the other job. You have to take care of yourself. No one else will.

Answer 4

If they wanted you then, hopefully they want you now. Go for it.

Answer 5

Depends on how bad you need a job. If it was me , yes, I would apply for the vacancy. If they remember you or say anything about it, just tell them the truth. Do not apologize for trying to better yourself! Just tell them of the facts. My guess is that they will remember you and you won't even get an interview but it is worth a try if you are in need of a job.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 6

A) they will still have a record of your previous application, and of your reasons for turning them down the first time.

B) they will definitely ask you why they should take a chance on you this time. After all, what's to stop them from thinking that you're just a mercenary?

Answer 7

What do you have to lose? Worst they could do is tell you to get lost!
