A Great Job Gone, For No Reason |

I received a few job offers from a couple of Fortune 500 companies in January. I whittled my choices down to what I thought would be the best fit for me (not the highest pay). The recruiter and I discussed a start date for me in mid February but a week before I was to start, the recruiter called me with news that they hadn't received confirmation from my school that I had graduated. I assured the recruiter that I had graduated and that I would call my school to clear up any problem. The recruiter and I also agreed upon a later start date in April because there were some other important obligations that I had to attend to. A few days later, I called my school to make sure they sent confirmation of my graduation to the company and they assured me that it would be sent out that day.
In April, I get another call from my recruiter stating that they have decided to rescind my offer. The reason, as the recruiter put it, was because I was supposed to start in February and because they still didn't receive my graduation information. I told them that we agreed that I would start in April and that I had no clue why my school still had not sent the information I had requested but it didn't do anything. My dream job was gone. I contacted my school again, and they appologized for the clerical error and mailed me everything that I had asked them to send to the company. I forwarded all of this information back to the company in hopes that it would help my cause, but I didn't even get an answer back.
Since then, I have been increasing my skills in that industry so I can be more qualified than before. I applied again and I guess the same recruiter came across my resume again. The recruiter contacted me and said that I cannot be employed at that company (at that office or any office in the US) and did not give me a reason why.
Can one HR manager make such a decision? There's a few partners at the company that still want me to work for them. Is there anything I should do in regards with my school for not getting the information that I had requested to the company? |

This message is complete B.S. The first lie is that you "received a few job offers form a couple of Fortune 500 companies in January." Do you really expect anyone to believe that not only did you receive one offer from a Fortune 500 company, but several offers from the same company? Unless you are looking to work in the copy center or mail room, you are full of crap.
The second lie is that you chose a job that was the best fit for you, but not the highest pay. B.S. If this is true, then you are surely an idiot.
I can continue, but I feel we've all wasted enough time on this crap.
