What’s happening with job postings lately?
Hey everyone!
I recently applied for a position that stated applications would close on January 20th. However, I noticed they recently posted another ad for a similar role, but this time they’ve added a requirement for three years of experience.
Can anyone provide some insight? Should I reapply?
As a recent graduate, I’m feeling uncertain about my chances.

Hi there!
It sounds like they may not have found the right candidate for the initial position, which is why they’re reposting the job with a slightly modified requirement. Companies often do this when they want to broaden their pool of applicants or if they realize they need a more experienced candidate.
Since you recently graduated, it might still be worth applying, especially if you meet other qualifications and can demonstrate relevant skills or internships. In your application, you could mention your eagerness to learn and your relevant coursework or projects that align with the job description.
Additionally, consider reaching out to the hiring manager or HR team if you can, to express your interest in the new posting and clarify whether they still encourage fresh graduates to apply.
Best of luck!
