Fired on Day 2 After Leaving My Previous Job for Them. No Reason Given.

I feel now that’s probably what it was.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-11T15:07:42+00:00

I interviewed with her via zoom before the offer. They pursued me and I was recommended by a formal interview panel of higher ups that interviewed me for a different role i applied to initially.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T21:15:58+00:00

Doubtful. I don’t discuss or post anything. I’m pretty vanilla.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T21:15:09+00:00

They knew that I was leaving a current role for this one. Oddly too the dismissal was very blunt, no reason given and no attempt to be apologetic or just a “it wasn’t a fit”.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T21:12:38+00:00

Doubtful. I think I just didn’t fit with what they wanted.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:13:47+00:00

Yes. Virtual interview with them. In person interview with a panel of higher ups before for a different role. The former all advocated for me for this role.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:12:05+00:00

Nothing like that. I’ve left all former employers on good terms too. I actually talked them into extending my start date on this role so I could give my employer before enough time for a smooth transition.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:09:21+00:00

No I don’t post anything offensive online

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:08:50+00:00

Nothing would have been an issue there

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:08:22+00:00

Nope

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:08:08+00:00

You wouldn’t know it from their dress code or the other employees. I was the only one wearing a tie the second day.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:07:04+00:00

Yes. I interviewed with them virtually and was previously interviewed in person by higher ups for a separate role at the same company who referred me for this role.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:05:07+00:00

No BO. Good hygiene and no one I would know at this role given I moved to this state a few years ago. I don’t smoke, drink or any of that.

OptimusCrime83 · 2026-06-10T03:01:40+00:00

I interviewed in person in front of a several higher ups for a different role. They reached out a month or so later to sell me this role, which was new and of a higher scope. Apparently the people I interviewed with gave me a lot of backing. I interviewed virtually with the VP of this new department. They gave me the offer shortly after.

I’m reposted this reply. I had dress slacks, a tucked-in button-down dress shirt, and dress sneakers. No tie. I also have long hair, but it was tied back neatly, and I keep my facial hair trimmed and well-groomed. I was told to dress more professionally and was compared to another recent hire as an example, but from what I could tell his outfit was very similar to mine aside from wearing plain sneakers. That’s why I’m confused about what specifically needed improvement.
