I recently applied to a position at Mailchimp and was rejected before scoring an interview. I’d like to reapply for another position. Any insider tips on how to score an interview?

One of the open Product Design roles. I noticed someone checking out my LI. Do you think it’s worth it to try a different Product Design position or is the design discipline small enough where I should give up at this point in time and try again after more experience? I applied for a Sr. Level role and I have 9 YOE.

If you can somehow find a connection inside the company, you’ll get better chance at an interview.
