Hi Edward - Having worked within corporate HR my entire career, re-initiating contact with a candidate happens for several reasons. Sometimes the leading candidates drop out (takes another offer, doesn't want to relocate, etc.). Sometimes the job changes, and you become a better fit--even though it's the same job description, the priorities change. Sometimes it's a related but different opportunity and you align better with those requirements.
So, it is a good question for you to ask: What changed?
Are you in a stronger position? Well, yes; true anytime you are called for another interview. But that doesn't translate to higher salary (e.g., internal decisions may require a
lower budget).
Good luck!

I interviewed for a position but was not taken to the next level. Now, they want to interview me again. Does this put me in a stronger position? If so, how would you recommend I handle it? Thanks.
