A role I was rejected from a few months back is back on their website. I had a great connection with the manager during the first round, but they chose another candidate. I want to email them directly to see if they’d reconsider me. Should I mention the reposting and ask what happened with the previous hire, or just skip the "why" and pitch myself again?

That's exactly the right approach. However, are you positive the position is for the same team/manager? If so, let them know you saw the job ad, and that you are still available and interested in the role.

Agree with Accountant1. I wouldn’t ask what happened with the original hie, but say you’re still very interested

Don’t ask why, reapply and reach out

I say just pitch yourself again. I wouldn't ask what happened, just focus on the future.

I would leave both out. Try to bring up something specific from your interviews so they remember you.

Go for it . Worst that can happen is they say no

I have an offer accepted from Elevance 125k (Anthem) and w a good team and seems that WLB would be ok. Also, Amazon hiring manager wants to interview me for a job. Is just a hiring manager int. so obvi nothing guaranteed. Salary if offered will be more than 150k. My question is should I accept the interview and see where it goes? Is it really worth it to proceed with a company like Amazon for 25k+. I live in CA so $ is imp but I do have a toddler so WLB is also imp. Both role are Sr. MGR.
