Hi All, I worked previously at the company MNC where I faced an issue with location transfer. I wanted a transfer from Bangalore to Pune, but the HRs were stubborn and unwilling to grant it due to company policies. I had several heated arguments, and my rating was poor. I had joined the company as a fresher. The HRs were very polite, though. During 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. Recently, I received a call from the HR department of the company for my details, as I was their previous employee, and they asked whether I would like to rejoin. I replied positively.
Reapplying to the Same Company
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?
Need help and advice regarding the same.
Thanks

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,
Rating Concerns and Transfer Request
1.0 Was the rating poor only because you wanted the transfer? Constant arguments affected my work, and I didn't give 100%; hence, the rating was poor.
Reasons for Returning to the Same Company
2.0 Why do you want to go back to the same company? Except for certain issues like the transfer, the company is fine.
Job Search Challenges in Pune
3.0 Could you not find any other job in Pune? Yes, I was finding it very difficult to find another job in Pune.
Company's Interest in Rehiring
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 to see if I was interested in joining them back in the future.

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.

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.
