Section 525 of the Bankruptcy Code generally prohibits employers from discriminating against employees in hiring, promotion, pay, benefits, etc. There are a few exceptions. Generally, of course, employers can come up with lots of reasons for not hiring someone other than the real one. So you would do well to get real proof of their impermissible reason-if it is impermissible. Consult a local experienced bankruptcy lawyer to find out what the attitude toward this kind of allegation in your federal district.
