    Hi.
    For the last year ive been working 2 jobs.
    A few weeks ago I recieved a phone call form an It company offering me a job and was given a start date. I jumped at the opportunity.

    I handed in my notice to both my job's and finish with yhem come the 31st.

    Last night I get a phone from the HR department in this company, now telling me this job is now an internship and I must be in college to be eligible for the position and now my offer has been taken off me.

    What hurts the most is that I now come the 31st loose my other jobs who have already put measures into place to replace me. Looks like the dole for me next month.

    Do you think there is anything I could do about being put in this position. ?

    You sign anything from the IT offer?

    Can you talk to your current employers and see if they have actually gotten replacements, or if they would consider you staying on?

    Did you ever meet anyone from the IT company? Or have an interview?
