Reapply or leave?

I need advice from some fellow nurses! I have worked in the same hospital unit since 2017. I was an LPN for approx 6years and now RN. I applied for a clinician job and got turned down saying I didn't meet the 2 year requirement as an RN and my LPN years didn't count for experience. I was maybe 6 weeks shy of the 2 year mark. At that time we just got a new manager who had barely been a nurse 4 years, but somehow got the position (mentioning this because I feel like she didn't have the experience either). Fast forward to today and I hear that another department got a new clinician who hasn't been an RN for even a year but they counted their prior LPN experience (several years less than my experience). Im hurt, disappointed, angry, frustrated) Not saying the person didn't deserve the clinician job at all but why didn't my years as an LPN count? Now the question, do I reapply now that Im several months past the 2 year minimum or say screw it and go elsewhere. This job is my life and I give my all to my job and bend over backwords. I want the position to make the unit better for patients and help my coworkers! Please help as I am so torn!
