I had a recruiter contact me on LinkedIn about a great opportunity for SWE position located in Y country in the health insurance sector. I do a bit of a research about the recruiter and their company (it turned out to be an outsourced company for some % of recruitment originally done by X company). I ask if it's regarding the X company (I interviewed with them not 2 months prior to this person contacting me, and they rejected me, and not only that they said they would come back to me in 7 days max, and guess what, they came back to me almost full 4 weeks later, and I had to spam a person I knew worked there for the feedback who was not involved in the recruitment process), and they said yes it's regarding the X company. I told them I did an interview with them and got the rejection, and that's it, they said 'Oh we don't track who was already interviewed there, etc'. It makes sense kind of that the outsourced company doesn't know that, because I originally interviewed directly with X, but the absurdity of getting rejected and then being contacted for the position again is just mind boggling to me.
