Hi All,
I worked previously in the company MNC where I had the issue of location transfer. I wanted a transfer from Bangalore to Pune. The HRs were stubborn and not willing to give me a transfer due to company policies. I had a lot of heated arguments, and even my rating was poor. I had joined the company as a fresher. The HRs were very polite though. In the exit interview, I was asked whether I would like to rejoin the same company. I said yes, and the only issue was with the location, nothing else. I recently received a call from the HR of the company for my details as I was their previous employee, and they asked whether I would like to rejoin the same company. I replied in the positive.
So, if I reapply to the same company, would there be any issues? How can I convince them about my behavior so that I can get re-selected in the same company?
Need help and advice regarding the same.
Thanks

Hello Hunter1234,
As long as there is mutual interest, it is alright to join. However, you have to consider these points for which only you know the answer:
1. Was the rating poor only because you wanted the transfer?
2. Why do you want to go back to the same company?
3. Could you not find any other job in Pune?
4. Why does your company want you back even though it is a different location?

Hi Raghunathan,
1.0 Was the rating poor only because you wanted the transfer? Constant arguments affected my work, I didn't give 100%, hence the rating was poor.
2.0 Why do you want to go back to the same company? Except for certain issues like transfer, the company is fine.
3.0 Could you not find any other job in Pune? Yes, I was finding it very difficult to find another in Pune.
4.0 Why does your company want you back even though it is a different location? It was a general inquiry made by the company whether I was interested in joining them back in the future.

Hello Hunter1234,
To add just a line further to what V. Raghunathan mentioned: "A mistake is a mistake UNTIL (1) you realize it AND (2) you correct it, to the extent you can AND (3) you learn from it. Then it's no more a mistake, it's EXPERIENCE.
Also, I think you have a very positive way of looking at issues/situations—I have seen quite a few people who mix up a bad experience with an employer with all the positive ones—and end up making improper decisions.
All the Best.

Dear Mr. Hunter1234,
The only addition I wish to make in this context is, if you decide to rejoin your past employer, give your best at work. This is because of the confidence the HR has placed in you despite your poor rating. If you prove that the HR's decision of rehiring you was correct, it will be an excellent workplace for you.
At this juncture, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to you for providing an open self-assessment. I am confident that this attitude of yours will lead you to great heights.
Generally, we observe that employees often blame employers and present a favorable assessment of themselves.
All the very best.
