#rehire

The Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities has successfully passed a new levy, enabling them to reconfigure staffing after earlier layoffs. In April, the board laid off 31 employees and transferred a building, aiming to save $4.5 million. They have since partnered with the Southwestern Ohio Council of Governments to transition eligibility services, allowing some laid-off staff to move with the program. The board is now engaged in strategic planning for the next three years, seeking community input. Investigative services will also transition on October 1st, with staff moving to the new arrangement.

Are there any reports of AT&T reversing 'not rehire eligible' statuses for employees terminated by the presence system, given that management later acknowledged the system's flaws?Is there any one rehired?

New research suggests companies using AI for layoffs may face higher costs rehiring staff later. Gartner predicts 30% of AI-displaced workers will need to be brought back by 2029. This rehiring could be more expensive than their original salaries. Organizations should focus on workforce amplification, not just automation, to avoid talent pipeline depletion. Failing to do so risks hindering innovation and competitive edge.

Portland Public Schools has recalled 43 of the 87 teachers who were laid off at the end of the last school year. These educators have been offered either full-time or part-time positions within the district. Recalls typically happen over the summer due to retirements or other staff changes. However, some classrooms still have substitute teachers, creating uncertainty for students and families. The district is working to fill these remaining vacancies according to union contract rules.

Did anyone from Florence aml layoffs get rehired and how long did it take? And what position was it?

I've heard rumors that if you were part of a layoff at BNY, you're on some kind of blacklist and can't come back. Is that true?

Like you never left.

All PTO
If 401k immediately vested employer contributions you get that back too.

Obviously wait until your severance is a month or so from being done since the hiring process is about 4-5 weeks from first interview to job offer on average. Some licensed positions are quicker since not everyone can apply vs anyone off the street like a teller.

Has anyone interviewed after a layoff? Was the process the same as external candidates or is there any difference in the interview process for those that were already with the company?

A significant portion of University of Kentucky dining and facilities workers laid off by Aramark have not been rehired by the new partner, Compass Group. By July 10, only 462 out of 926 affected employees had found new positions. Compass Group is reportedly prioritizing full-time hires, leaving many student and part-time workers in limbo. Additionally, UK employees who choose to remain with the university rather than join Compass Group will not be eligible for promotions. The university is still finalizing its contract with Compass Group, which began providing services in July.

A significant number of leaders now regret decisions to lay off employees due to AI implementation. Data indicates that 55% of employers who reduced staff for AI reasons now express regret. This is largely due to the realization that institutional knowledge cannot be fully automated. Companies like Ford have already rehired hundreds of engineers to address quality gaps. This trend suggests a broader corporate reevaluation of workforce strategies following initial AI-driven cuts.

Has anyone who was laid off from Citi and received a redundancy/severance package later rejoined the company?

I’m trying to understand whether there is a formal waiting period before someone can be rehired, particularly where the exit package included severance pay, payment in lieu of notice, or other redundancy compensation.

Does the restriction vary depending on whether the person returns as a permanent employee, contractor, or consultant? Also, is the waiting period counted from the last working day, the official termination date, or the end of the PILON period?

Any recent experience from the UK or EMEA would be helpful.

After being laid off, how much time needs to pass before you can reapply at GP? Without risking your severance.

Anyone had NetApp admit they made a mistake getting rid of you and asked you to come back to the same role as if you never left? Didn't happen to me, but curious of others had it happen?

If I put in notice in the US, do they walk me out immediately? If I don't put in notice, will that make me ineligible for rehire? Should I wait on notice to see if I am part of the next layoff? I'm a software developer going to a hardware company.

Just wondering if anyone has been re-hired after accepting the VRSP last year.

Several U.S. firms are rehiring employees previously replaced by AI. Ford rehired 350 veteran engineers after AI-driven quality inspections led to numerous recalls. Klarna rehired customer service staff after customer satisfaction declined. IBM found its AI chatbot could not handle complex HR issues, leading to increased hiring. These companies discovered human expertise, empathy, and judgment remain vital for critical tasks.

Just curious can you apply to AT&T after being surplussed? Or are the doors likely closed forever from this company. I feel like out off all of the candidates out there you would be best positioned to re-enter AT&T given how much specialized telecommunications knowledge you would have about fiber and wireless.

As the title states, will they start rehiring folks affected by the CPM last year? My guess is they'll wait a year so your tenure resets and you come back at a lower cost on their books.

What is the cooling off period for rehiring employees who were laid off in May?

How can you find our if you've been blackballed from being rehired

Hello,

Could anyone going through the rehire process after last year CPM share their experience? Did you have to fill out the background check information before the offer or after the offer?
At what point in the process did HR communicate about severance repayment?

I am waiting for decision after interview and would like to know other experiences to preapre.

“At this time the company decision is that we are currently unable to rehire any employees that were impacted by the RIF. This could change in the future as we continue to review policy. If so, we will most certainly reach back out.”

Former manager and adjacent manager gave good feedback to HR. Hiring manager was going to make an offer and at the last minute this came through.

Was laid off over 1 year ago.
Found a opening or what I thought was an opening on Indeed. I applied for it, got the email confirmation from Indeed and the email from UHG HR advising to complete the UHG application on the company website. When I clicked the link to open the company website from their own email the job posting was “no longer available.” In the same exact day within a couple hours of my Indeed app.
Wtf?! I’m wondering if its because they realized I was a former employee (from my email address) and didnt want to rehire me.
I thought I left in good standing - I received recognitions while I was working there.

Any one else experienced anything like this?

Anyone ever see someone get laid off and was rehired after a certain amount of time when they decided to reapply?

allowed to come back to work at VZ. Anyone else heard this?

The VSP and enhanced severance employees in 2024 were not supposed to be re-hired
