I was hired for a really great role at a great company. Three Zoom interviews and no mention of the vax. The hiring manager told me upper management had loved me.
I was all set to begin work soon and then this email came:
“I hope you are well.
Would you please forward your proof of vaccination and boosters to us so we can have them on file?“
To which I responded that I was not vaccinated. Two days later they fired me in an email, saying should I wish to get vaxed, they would consider talking to me again.
Standing strong in my truth today, but it stings a little....
and find their main competitor in the field and see if they have the same screwy (illegal IMO) requirements. You may be surprised what companies will 'defer (indefinitely)' for the right applicant.
