However my question is after they did my background check and live scan I was given a verbal offer with wage amount and start date.I was then made to get two tb test and numerous shots before I started.Then my start date was changed again.Then I was told that they hired someone else while in the process of going through this with me.All of the paperwork that I had taken to get shots and tb test said employee on it.Do I have any legal rights,because they knew they were hiring someone else even though I was offered the job and led to believe that I needed shots,tb tests,blood and urine done before I started?
This is always an interesting and heartbreaking fact pattern when it arises. Employment in the United States is on an "at will" basis. That means, simply, that the employer may terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason or no reason at all. Thus, the breach of a contract for at-will employment results in no damages. Sorry.
