    I reached out to a recruiter I had previously worked with at a well-known company. Earlier this year, I applied for a coordinator role but was rejected. Recently, I got back in touch regarding a lower-level position, which I also didn't get. Now, I've seen another job opening at the same company that I'm really interested in. I'm considering sending a direct email to the recruiter with my updated resume and cover letter. I want to know if this is a good idea or if it might come off as annoying since I've already applied for a couple of roles and faced rejections. I believe my skills align with the positions, and I've made it through mid-stages in the past, so I'm not completely out of the running. I genuinely want to pursue this opportunity but I'm worried about overstepping. Any thoughts?

    I found myself in a strange situation regarding my job search. Back in 2025, while I was enrolled in a part-time MBA program at WGU, I started applying for jobs. I managed to secure a contract position in New York City, which forced me to withdraw from school due to financial reasons. Now, with my contract ending in August, I've been actively looking for new roles, both internally and externally. I used an old resume for my applications, but I completely forgot to update the graduation year for my MBA program. To my surprise, I've received several interview invitations despite this inaccuracy. Now I'm wondering if I should disclose this mistake during the interviews or wait until I potentially receive an offer and undergo a background check. I've already updated my resume for future applications, but I’m currently in three interview processes and would be happy to accept any offer. I’m really torn about what to do next. Should I come clean about the incorrect graduation date now or keep quiet until later?
