First, I'd like to thank everyone in advance for their advice.
Here's the situation:
My girlfriend worked for a local hospital as a Certified Nursing Assistant. In addition to the necessary certification from the Arizona State Board of Nursing, she had an excellent work history and the necessary qualifications and experience for the position. Unfortunately, the Senior Clinical Manager did not feel that she was adequate for the unit and terminated her within her initial 90-day probationary period. I also feel I should mention that there were two other individuals in the same unit much less qualified for the position and also did not possess the CNA certification from the Arizona State Board of Nursing.
The manager explained that although she didn't feel that my girlfriend was working well for the unit, the termination would not reflect negatively on her record and would only show as "unsuccessful" on her record. In addition, the manager explained to her that she would remain eligible for rehire. However, several weeks afterward my girlfriend had applied to at least 20 positions distributed throughout other units within the hospitial organization (no exaggeration here! ) and was rejected, without interview and without reason, for each and every one of them. I am beginning to believe that something negative has actually been placed on her record and is preventing her from seeking employment.
Does my girlfriend have any recourse in this matter?
