I had someone apply for a job through a recruiter at my company and passed the interview with flying colors. However, it has come across after the interview that they may not have the legal ability to work. The company I work for is audited regularly, so I can’t have hiring them swept under the rug.
How do I deal with this without jepordizing the applicant?
Not hire them if they’re actually unable to prove their right to work. Lol.
Yeah, but I’m trying to keep this interaction from being a red flag.
“We are unable to employ you because you failed to prove your right to work in the United States of America”. Could be a trump goon as well. Wouldn’t put it past him.
Your first instinct is that an assumed illegal immigrant is a trump goon?
I wouldn’t put it past the trump administration to employ people to refuse to show right documentation to see if a business is hiring illegal immigrants or not
They definitely wouldn’t, but even if they did……people that do not have the right to work in the country should not be working in the country.
Careful. You might get cancelled for saying that.
A red flag for who? The applicant? Your company?
