I can't really describe it, because I haven't progressed very much in the process. I applied online, directly at the company. I got called by their HR really quickly. I have relevant working experience in the field where they are doing business, and went through same problems/issues what they are facing. I used similar tech stack as well. Somehow, I wanted the "next" once in a life position. All of these seemed to be very positive things during the first chat with their HR. So, we agreed a first stage tech interview over the phone. Unfortunately, only 15 minutes before the interview, they cancelled the call in an email. They realised I'd already applied for another role at the company 8 months ago, so they changed their minds, and didn't want to progress with me any more. Well, I really applied for a role 8 moths before that application. That was really a different one, focusing on tech what I wanted to pick up and hadn't really got market ready experience with that. But at this time it was different. I have relevant, proven experience and qualifications for the role. And most importantly I had really good motivation, so I believe I could bring important things to the table, and I tried to expose this feeling to the recruiter. I asked in written, when could I apply again, how much time must be spent between two applications in order to be considered again, but no answer came back. This left a negative feeling in me, e.g.: I decided to close my account at the company.
