Question: I applied for a Pharma job on the company's website. I recently updated my résumé. So, I withdrew my application hoping to use my new and improved résumé. To my dismay, I am unable to resubmit my application. I found the hiring manager on LinkedIn. Is it bad to message him to take a look at my profile and résumé ??? If he doesn't respond should I call HR on Monday????

Did you ever get an interview request with the old resume? If not, then I would not call HR because that is a creepy move.
Messaging hiring manager on LinkedIn is better. Also, what did you change on resume that you would just withdraw your application and then try to reapply? You could basically just pass on the updated resume before interview if you ever get the interview call.

It is not bad to reach out to them and share your latest resume. OP, if it’s your dream job, then go for it :)

Just let it go. As a hiring manager I’m going to look at both versions and wonder why you made such a fuss. In the end, either they’ll want you for it or not

Update ...

So, I emailed the hiring manager and he responded. Told me to reapply if unable to reach back out to him and he will contact HR. He also stated that he is just going to start the interview process.

I created a new account to reapply ... will see what happens if I get an initial interview.

That is great news that you got a response back. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

BTW.... This is my dream job

I would wait for the recruiter to reach out to you if your selected for an interview and say you have an updated resume to send to the manager.

So I had an interview with a company (3 rounds actually) which went pretty well. I even rearranged my schedule for last minute interviews because it’s the job that I really want. My recruiter said that they all love me & even wanted me to speak to the CEO. Then they needed a few days to speak with another candidate. After a few days, I was told that they needed another day because the other candidate couldn’t interview with the department lead. I’m really worried now. How should I take this?
