Timeline for Laid off without even starting the job completely. Getting calls for same job from job agencies. Should I confront the HR about it?

| Aug 26, 2019 at 9:33 | comment | added | jitendragarg | I don't quite understand the comment. But based on my understanding of your comment, yes, I am fine with working with the company as long as the real reason for getting laid off is "position is closed". | |
| Aug 26, 2019 at 9:30 | comment | added | Dirk | Can you go along with people offering you the job again? At some point, there should be a "wtf are you doing here?" moment, then you know who to ask. Of course only do that if you don't plan to work with or for this company anymore, as it might torch quite some river-crossings. | |

| Aug 26, 2019 at 8:05 | comment | added | jitendragarg | Since I never was formally introduced to the client, I am not sure if it will be okay, as I have to talk to client's HR to put me to proper department etc. Plus it means going above the heads of people at this company. | |
| Aug 26, 2019 at 8:00 | comment | added | SZCZERZO KŁY | Can you contact the client directly and ask if the position is still open (maybe be hired by them directly) because one company told you A while at the same time agencies contact you telling you B. | |

| Aug 26, 2019 at 5:44 | comment | added | jitendragarg | That's the problem. If agencies are trying to place someone, that means client never closed the position, and company has no integrity. If so, I would love to put it out in the open, to get full clarity. Obviously, it is not a good look for me for my future job applications to say "I left after 1 month". | |
| Aug 26, 2019 at 5:38 | comment | added | Julie in Austin | Sorry that happened. What's most likely happening with the agencies is they are just trying to place a candidate. Don't blame you for not wanting to work for them, even if they actually had an opening again. I was placed in a contract position 28 years ago and got the "bounce" early. Let's just say that I never worked for that agency ever again. That kind of drama just plain sucks. | |

| Aug 26, 2019 at 5:27 | comment | added | jitendragarg | I was just going through the knowledge transfer phase. I have not done any actual work yet. There was no task assigned to me. | |
| Aug 26, 2019 at 5:25 | comment | added | Julie in Austin | Did you start your employment, but not start doing actual work, or were you waiting for you first actual day of work? That first paragraph is a bit confusing. | |
