Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me out with some information on this issue. I applied at a telemarketing job through my university, because i heard getting hired was a piece of cake, especially if you have no experience. I had an interview, and a few days later they called and said there were a few others that were more qualified, and i didnt get the job. Approx. a week later a friend of mine who is a shift manager asked the recruiter why they didnt hire me, i had asked him to maybe find out, because i thought i was a shoe-in with some experience in this kind of field. Come to find out the reason they did not hire me was because i have worked in the telemarketing field before. Is it discrimination to not hire someone because of previous work history? I am 100% sure this is the reason why i did not get hired, and am a little angry that this was an issue for me in this situation.
If anyone could help, i would appreciate it greatly!!
Thanks!!
