#rehire

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

Is there a cooling off period in citi to join back as perm after layoff?

Would you consider finding an internal role and staying or are you completely done with fidelity? What are some of the pros and cons? I’ve seen a lot of people who were laid off last round come back either full time or contract so just curious.

John Deere is launching new distribution and manufacturing facilities in Indiana and North Carolina on April 28, 2026, marking a strategic effort to rehire laid-off workers despite significant financial headwinds and recent workforce reductions across the United States.

School boards across Whatcom and Skagit County have approved reductions in force. These actions address enrollment declines, increasing costs, and state funding gaps. Districts must issue layoff notices to certificated staff by May 15. However, some affected staff may be rehired based on clearer financial pictures. Bellingham School Board approved reducing 38.2 certificated staff positions. Mount Vernon School Board approved reducing 13 certificated secondary, seven certificated elementary, one administrator, and 15 classified staff positions.

Has anyone returned to Intel after the layoff last year? How intensive is the interview process for engineers?
Consider reapplying to Intel because job market is tough

Just curious if anyone has insight - I was impacted on 3/31 but was contacted by Oracle for positions they are trying to fill for the VA. I submitted my application(s) and also have been networking within Oracle Health. It seemed positive, but things have gone "quiet" and I have received the "Dear John" rejects about my applications.

Any insight?

A friend of mine was let go in massive layoff 2-3 years ago. He wants to join back. He was given 4-3 rating. Pure politics. Can he rejoin ?

As a VP, I am required to give 30 days notice to keep RSU and be eligible for rehire. I currently work in controls (second line of defense) but will be joining another competitor bank as an WIM client Advisor.
The last thing I need is ~30 days of no pay due to being let go by WF soon after giving my 30 days notice. What are the chances I will be let go soon after giving 30 days notice?

Can former VSP recipient be eligible for rehire after 12 months?

With Intel hiring again, has anyone been rehired after CPM? Are there any HR blocks for coming back?

If the bank asked you to come back, same pay, same position, as if you never left, would you do it?

For all of you on the chopping block, take the severance package, go on vacation. And then be on the lookout for a job again at Nike. Most likely, your old job will be posted, and with a little bit of luck, you may even get it. The over-hiring hype never ends at Nike.

Companies are laying off workers after adopting artificial intelligence. This trend is known as "AI boomerangs." These same companies later rehire staff. Leaders reassess AI capabilities and limitations. Robert Half expert Travis Laird discussed this phenomenon.

Tesla recently dismissed its Supercharger team. Over 500 employees were affected, including the head of charging. This action caused confusion and paused new Supercharger site deployments. Tesla has since begun bringing back some of the laid-off staff. This indicates ongoing dedication to expanding the charging network.

Don't roast me, but I got an offer to get hired back after getting impacted last year. Ultimately Intel pays more for my role than anywhere else. For the life of me I can't find the percentage of severance I'd have to pay back relative to the months from getting laid off. Does anyone have that information? Has Intel actually enforced it?

Has anyone returned to the company after a layoff? It’s been a few years since I was let go, so interested to see if anyone has comeback and what their experience was like. I’ve realized the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. I’m also aware that the company is still going through layoffs so it may not be an ideal time to come back.

I have received a severance agreement after my layoff from Citi. If I am offered a job at Citi in a different department but turn down the job, will I lose the severance?
I don't see this question addressed in the agreement.

How soon can I come back as either an external contractor or a FTE?

Curious if anyone laid off is trying to secure another role within UHC or Optum? If yes, any success with getting interviews or re-hired? How long did it take you to get rehired?

Of those laid off last week, did you receive a severance package? Are you eligible for rehire?

Does your prior service still count towards any new severance you may be eligible for later down the road? I got nine months severance pay for a layoff last year but I’m considering a new position back at the company. Just curious if I was rehired and laid off again in a couple of years I’d end up with 10 months of severance the next time.

John Deere has recalled 245 workers in Iowa after mass layoffs. They'll be back on the job this month and next.

Prompted by weaker demand, a lagging agricultural economy and Trump administration tariffs on equipment, John Deere laid off workers across the Midwest last fall, including in Iowa.

It looks like HP is laying off employees only to quietly rehire for nearly identical roles at significantly lower pay.

Blaming it on AI advancements or the so-called chip crisis feels like a convenient excuse

What was the point of the RIF last year if we were going to turn around, and rehire for the same positions?

How are ya’ll getting hired back? I’ve had great interviews but I can tell the hiring manager already has someone in mind for the role. How much networking is everyone doing?

If I'm laid off, that is.

I’m a external candidate wondering if they have started rehiring

People are getting rehired by DELL after years of working for other employers. Why so many people are returning to DELL is the question. Is it because the other employers gave them higher salaries and were better managed companies? Find the answer for yourselves which will depend on your intelligence level!

If RIF how long do you have to wait to accept another role there to avoid loosing the severance payout?

RIF in Dec and some networking in other teams and want to bring me back ..
