    Yeah, if I applied to a job and then they tried to contact me a year later I’d turn them down just based on the principle.

    If you reverse it and imagine a prospective hire putting off an interview for months or a year and then calling in expecting to still take the interview it shows how ridiculous it is.

      They can do it because hold all the cards. Honestly, if our government actually wanted to protect us, they would make this illegal.
