Company rescinds candidate's job offer after claiming they don't have the qualifications, only to reach out two years later to offer them the same job: ‘The audacity…’

It is one thing to reject an employee during the hiring process after realizing they don't have the right qualifications for the job; it is another thing to reject them after you already offered them the job.

Doing the latter is highly disrespectful and frankly, quite unprofessional. They might not meet the qualifications, but the only one to blame is the one who offered the job without noticing the missing criteria in the first place.

Imagine you got a job offer from a company and even started the onboarding process, only for them to rescind the offer after realizing you don't meet the qualifications. At first, you might be disappointed, but you will soon realize that you are better off without this unprofessional company. Now, imagine that two years after the whole ordeal, you get another call from the same company, which is offering you the same role, thinking you forgot how they treated you the first time around.

What makes them think you would want to work for a company that has no problem treating its new hires this way?
