Do you look desperate if you apply to several jobs within the same company? I was recently rejected for a job I REALLY wanted at a well known tech company. And after interviewing there and studying up on the company, I just really want to work there. The positions I'm applying for are definitely still within my wheelhouse. But will I just look too desperate to their in-house talent team to be considered?

I would say No, not always, but some things to consider:

1. Is this a large company?
2. How many positions is several?
3. Are all the positions at the same level of experience?
4. Are you tailoring your resume to show and highlight the skills relevant for each position?

When I receive multiple applications from the same candidate I check to see if the other roles they applied to make sense.

All reasonable, since you received the rejection on basis of being too senior I would thank them for the feedback. Too senior could be the Hiring Manager being nervous you will be bored and leave quickly or they may not be able to afford someone at your skill level. If you applied for another more senior role leverage their feedback to ask about one role and if they have any insight.

Help! I have a panel interview in a few days & I'm not sure what to do at this stage of the interview process. Up until now, I've only had initial interviews with recruiters or a 2nd round 1:1 with hiring managers & now I don't know what to expect. I've been told that they use the STAR method for answers & I'm researching that now, but a) what should I expect during this time & b) what are some questions typically asked at this stage? Any advice you can share is appreciated!
