Any reprocutions if business hires you, then backs out after you put in two wks with present employer?
My fiance was pursued by another orthopedic surgeon to fill a RN/ Med. Assistant position. They offered double the salary and more hands on experience. Then after a start date was agreed upon (and after she put in a two weeks notice with current employer) the boss backed out of the verbal agreement. He decided they only wanted her to come in on Fridays for 6 months to train only. Her current employer filled her position and she can not file for unemployment due to the fact that she quit her current job. Is she entitled to anything or is she "screwed"? We live in Arkansas and don't know about state laws or anything for that matter concerning this matter. If anyone could help, we would be greatly appreciative!
Answers:
I'm sorry, but that is the chance you take. The good thing is that she is in a good field and should land on her feet pretty quick.
The verbal agreement part sounds thin but you might tell your story to a Lawyer that specializes in Human Resource law and if you stand a good chance then he might do your case on contingency.
If not, it's a hard learning experience but take a couple of college law classes in night school and you might miss some of the other potholes in life.
Was she officially hired at the new place? That's going to make a difference. If not, I think she may have to sue, a verbal agreement can still be binding.
It may be in her best interest to suck it up, shake off the dust and find another job...if this guy wanted her someone else will too.
Although I feel terrible for you. I would think that is why you test drive the new position while in your current. When you let one go, it's just the risk you take.
