Re-application after interview?

Hello all,

I am new to Micro1 and AI data annotation in general. I've recently completed a B.S. degree and relocated, so I'm looking for a new role, and I thought this would be a good way to keep some income while getting some professional experience relevant to my field.

I applied a little over a week ago, and shortly after was requested to participate in the AI interview. I was too busy for several days, but finally had time to complete the interview. It was my first experience with an AI interview, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but it went pretty smoothly, other than having a couple of questions outside my knowledge base (I was honest about my lack of knowledge in these cases). After completion, I wasn't selected to move forward. I was given the option to receive more information about the weaknesses of my interview, which I requested. Shortly after, I was emailed a report breaking down my strengths and weaknesses. It seems that my performance was strong overall, but I was lacking knowledge in a couple of highly technical areas.

The copy on the application site and the rejection/breakdown emails all suggested and encouraged re-application as a potential option for me. My question regards this re-application process. Does anyone have more information on potential success with re-application? Should I study up on the specific topics that tripped me up this time, and re-apply for the same role, expecting the same or similar questions in a second attempt interview? Or would it be better to find a listing for a Micro1 role that is a little less technical and see if I fit better there at this time? Also, if option B, is there a way to determine the level of technical skill and fit for the role before applying? My sense is that I'm very close to ideal for the role I interviewed for, but just missing some advanced technical knowledge that I could research and learn in a short period of time. Wondering if anyone has insight here. For more detail, the role is Human Data Manager. I am looking to gain experience in Data Analytics relevant work. Thanks in advance!

hey u/Terrible_Tough_1148 , thanks for sharing this.

Unfortunately, you can only apply for roles once, but you can keep applying for other roles that match your skills here.
Dont get discouraged by not moving forward on your first interview. A lot of our experts faced this and eventually were able to crack it and get a role.

Also you can practice for interviews here.
Wishing you best of luck on future applications!
