Thank you for your feedback. We would like to take the opportunity to respond to these allegations. After the contract was signed, things began to change. New demands were made that hadn’t been discussed prior, and your arrival date was pushed back by over two weeks, which was not acceptable or previously agreed upon. Due to the time-sensitive nature of the role, we were forced to offer the position to someone else. When that person accepted, we informed you that the job was no longer available.
We called multiple times to explain this to you, but because we didn’t hear back, here are the main reasons why we made that decision and chose someone else over you:
• Impractical travel plans: While you initially indicated you could be to our location and begin working quickly, you later insisted on a road trip to another state for certification, which was impractical and added unnecessary delays during our busiest time of year. We offered certification 1.5 hours away, but you did not accept this.
• Lack of communication: After several attempts to contact you via phone call, we were forced to send a text to inform you that the job was no longer available. The response we received was angry and unprofessional, which reinforced our decision to hire someone else.
• Team fit: We had concerns about your ability to fit into our team, especially after receiving a late reference with feedback about previous disruptive behavior. We prioritize teamwork, professionalism, and respect, and we felt that you might not be a good fit for our culture given the issues mentioned.
• Choosing a stronger candidate: Ultimately, we hired someone who could start on time, was easy to get a hold of, and was a great team player. This person didn’t take advantage of our situation, showed respect for our processes, and was committed to working with us to ensure success.
We understand this might be frustrating, but please understand that we had to make a decision that was best for our team and our company. This has only happened twice in 20 years, and we don’t take it lightly. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
Sincerely,
Alli Shurr
