Stryker Account Service Representative interview questions

Applied online with a solid resume and cover letter. I felt my skill set matched the criteria and expectations listed for this position. Received an email about a week later indicating that there were other candidates who were better suited for this position. Basically, the email was letting me know that the position had been filled. I actually appreciate this over companies who don't contact applicants after a position is filled. However the post for the jon that I applied for renewed and continued to be posted for over a month?
