What is the name of your state? Florida
I am a 44 year old white male. On November 11, 2003 the company I work for (fortune 500) restructured one of its divisions that resulted in the loss of approximately 180 jobs, one of them being mine. During the restructure approximately 150 new positions were created. The employees in my department were told that the interview and hiring process for these new positions would be open to those effected. However, the manger of my department denied my request to interview for several of these positions. Employees in other departments were allowed to interview for numerous positions thereby increasing their chances of being retained, but I was allowed to interview for only one position. Several of my coworkers encountered the same situation. I feel this is very unfair and wonder if there is any legal recourse?
