    Find out who is recruiting. Ask them can you stil submit. Show your passion for the job if indeed you have been looking for it for over a year. Go up the ladder if you have to.

    I missed a deadline for my perfect job last year. I sent a letter to the local manager (the job was in the public service and recruitment went through Dublin) explaining that I'd really appreciate an opportunity to submit an application and why I was suited to the position. The manager invited me to his office where he helped me fill in an application form and he sent it off with a note that it was to go into the selection process. I got a phone call later that week from Dublin to say they had my form and i was in the selection process. Nothing came of it in the end but...if you have been waiting for this job go for it man! :)

    Good luck

    def look it up and apply. I did the same as above, applied late and got told I was in the selection process, didn't get it in the end, but they def counted me as a candidate

    Yeah someone emailed me back and said no, you're late. Basically tough ****. I'm not sure if I am even qualified enough for it but I have tons of knowledge on the subject and huge passion.

    I'll give it a shot.

    Sure keep belting away at it. Worst thing that can happen is they tell you to p*** off.
