I was getting HR hits like every six months and eventually I told them I would get back in touch when I was ready.
Now I'm getting an email every month from FB, and about ready to do the same with them.
The last time I passed the first and second rounds and Google let me languish on the third round for a month. I still probably would not have made it through, but it was surprising that my candidacy was dropped like that.

It says something about their HR systems that it's clear they don't review past interactions before doing this. To me that's a warning sign too - I'm less likely to consider interviewing if a company contacts me again and the interaction doesn't start with a pitch of how this time or this position is a better fit...
But I kept being approached by Google recruiters, kept recounting what had happened last time and asked if I could expect better this time. None could promise things had improved, and a few did express that kind of frustration.
This was years ago now. Could have changed of course. But I started telling them to go away.
