I was interviewing with an agency last year - it didn’t work out because they needed someone more senior but was an overall really positive process on both sides - I still really admire the agency and the work and am ready to leave my current agency - is it pointless to reach back out?

I interviewed at a place twice, about 18 months apart, and got it the second time.

Not sure how common that is but it's totally possible.

I focused my narrative on how much I admired the company, what I identified to work on from the previous no, and how I'd improved upon that.

You should definitely reach out. A lot can change in a year.

I'll never understand questions like this. Of course reach out! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. The company will appreciate that you kept them in mind.

No. Shoot your shot. What do you have to lose?

Reach out definitely - they may not even be looking for a new SD but if they did like you and now have more experience then it puts you in good standing of they have a role going.
