So it looks like one of the firms that dinged me at OCI is looking for more SAs (awful yield, although i know of a few people going from my school). I'm def emailing them as a hail mary, but how do I skirt the fact I got dinged? The way I see it, I have 4 options:
1) mention i spoke with X interviewer and enjoyed our talk (without saying we interviewed)
2) mention I spoke with X attn in hospo suite and enjoyed our talk (without mentioning interviewer at all)
3) mention i had an interview but am still interested (dont mention ding, they assume i just didnt get it or something)
4) act like i never interviewed at all and straight up make a generic massmail email
Thoughts on which one is best?

Go with option 4, but don't be generic. Talk about why you're interested in the firm/location.

OP. Hastings would be a reasonable guess but I'll stay mull.
Just to clarify, I mean generic in the sense that I'm treating it like any targeted mass mailing w/o any prior contact.
