An interview for a place I've been interviewed by before

    It was near the end of last summer, for Pulse Accessories. I don't know what I said wrong last time. They don't seem to remember me, but if they do when I go for the interview, is it best to admit they have interviewed me before? Or deny it completely?

    Don't mention it in the interview because you might embarrass the person doing the interviewing so they won't want to hire you.

    I'd just play dumb... and if they bring it up just say you assumed they remembered but didn't think it was relevant...

    yea i'd listen to AAARGH. Its not relevant to them whether you had an interview there before and for all you know theres been a total staff turnover so there may be noone there who remembers you.Start afresh with them :) good luck!

    Say nothing OP

    In my current job, I applied directly and got rejected.
    Three weeks later I applied again through a recruitment agent and got the job. :confused:

    The fools! They could of cut out the recruitment agent and saved thousands

    HR bring laziness to new levels and have no concept of money. It's easier for them to pay 15k to someone to send CVs to them then it is to check the mailbox which is used for direct applications.

    I'm not joking.
