What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Missouri
I have an interesting situation at hand and I want to know if it's worth a consultation. I applied for a communications officer position with the local Police Dept. I was contacted last week and was told that if the city manager approved it, the position was mine. Today the police chief called me and told me that the city manager did not approve me being hired and that I should call him and inquire as to why not. When I called the city manager he stated that the PD didn't follow the proper procedures and that is why I was denied, which if so, how is it that I'm being punished for their error. Later on, an unidentified female, who works at the PD, called my cell phone and told me to get an attorney because the PD followed all the proper procedures and that the city manager emailed the police chief and told him that the reason I wasn't approved was because two staff members at city hall didn't want me hired due to personal issues with me. The question is, is it worth my time to dig into this or not.
