I've just been turned down at the end of a lengthly application process that involved three separate interviews at two different locations. There were also "follow ups" which has made my total investment in the opportunity (or lackthereof apparently) more than I've made for any job ever. The time and resources I've wasted only to be turned down has angered me, but even more upsetting is the way in which I was turned down. I had a minor drug conviction that I completed probation for in 2008. The employer tells me just now at the end of this lengthy process that my application won't even be considered since it hasn't been 6 or more years since the incident. The job is an entry level position with no education required. These people have no right to make me feel like a criminal or a lowlife as they have so effectively done. I'm extremely upset. The application states that any convictions will not necessarily impact my consideration for the position. This must just simply be a typo, or more likely, a bold lie. If the application stated specifically that this would be an issue I never would have had to waste my time and ultimately be treated as an "undesirable." I want to teach this corporation a lesson and be reimbursed by them for my money spent and for emotional damages.
