Try a different strategy. Research who the recruiters are and give them a call.

Telling me that my background doesn’t fit what they’re looking for when I have experience in everything that’s listed in their job description. Should I try to get more specific feedback from an actual recruiter, give up on applying, or continue trying?

How weird would it be if I reached out to the head of the team since they’re lean? Expressing my interest and wanting to learn more about the role and team

Is it bad manners or just a bad idea to go back to a recruiter if they got you a job that wound up being a bad fit?
For context, I don’t think they misled me. The job changed 3 weeks after I got hired, and got stuck in a role that’s just not a good fit. Gave it 6 months of honest effort and I’m ready to start job hunting.
I saw this recruiter make a post on LinkedIn, and I liked working with them the first time, and I want to reach out. But I don’t know what they’ll think.

So I end up accepting blame for things that were not my responsibility. And the truth hits me a few hours later. How can I break this cycle?

I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.
