I interviewed last week, and it went okay. Today, HR called. I thought it was an offer, but instead, they let me know they hired someone else. But... they said they have the same job open on a different team and want me to interview again due to "positive feedback" from my first interview. I've been here before with no offer, so it's tough to be hopeful. Should I be optimistic, or is this probably a dead end?

Give it a shot. It's not ideal and I'm sorry you didnt' get the first role. But having a guaranteed interview for another role at a company you want to work for, that's a great opportunity. Don't let fear get in the way!

I’d take the interview. If nothing else, it’s more practice and you’re already somewhat in their system. But yeah, I’d keep my hopes realistic based on how things played out before.

You might as well be optimistic. People are struggling to get interviews and you've been invited to an interview. Sounds pretty good, really. Go in with a positive attitude, determined to get it in the bag this time.
