Probably 1-2 years out as an experienced hire

Oh that long? I applied over the Summer and since then I've done a great internship and I'm completing my final year. I want to reapply for a job against next year (after I graduate).

Oh gotcha. As an undergrad I would say you have a shot as an intern and also for full time. If for FT only, I'm sure you have to wait at least a year. I was in the same boat this cycle, got dinged final round

Usually 1 year is for those that flunked 2nd round but where close. Give it a shot still just keep in touch with recruiters
