Same job, same requirements but didn't qualify for the second one?
I qualified for a job and got it. The job, as far as I know, was put on hold due to the client wanting to change things...understood, So with 2400 people apply and getting the job and waiting, I decided to move on with another job (actually applied for 2) that was as far as I could see the same type. Same requirements, same pay.
I interviewed with the first one and am under consideration. I interviewed with the second one and was immediately put on did not qualify.
Perhaps I was at fault here but during the second interview with the second job, I hesitated a bit and said "let me explain my answer Zara".
(She) immediately skipped to the next question because I took too much time?
I suspect that may have been the cause but with a human interviewer, it would have been a further explanation to clarify my answer.
I use this technique with my technical boards and my clients always appreciate the second answer since many are not English-speaking and this helps them in their decision making process.
So, do I keep applying? To the same jobs with the same requirements?
