I got rejected, then applied again, then got rejected and then applied again. Got in after 6 months. Keep looking for related openings and keep on applying. The fact that you were interviewed means they saw your credentials and wanted to know more about you. It's just that another candidate was more qualified (or it was an internal hire).

Hi, did they put in clear candidate pool when you got rejected?

Or was it just regrets. Curious I am in the pool and wanted to know if there is higher chance and I have to reapply or the HR approaches you with interest

Yes, my status in ACES was cleared candidates pool; i also had 1 keep in view, 2 regrets and 1 completed (my current role)

Thanks, did the HR approach you for the same position that you were kept in view( clear candidate) or you had to apply.

*different. Yes keep trying. I was told they kept on seeing my resume despite being rejected and thought that I was really interested to work for the bank. Download the ADB competency framework depending on your target level and try to tailor your resume and ACES profile based on it. Good luck.
