A candidate applied for the position under VEOA and was found qualified and placed on the certificate of eligibles. Two weeks
later, the HR Specialist informed the hiring manager that after
making the tentative offer and collecting additional paperwork,
they found that the applicant had discharge papers for several
periods of military service. The discharge for the initial term of
service indicated the veteran had an honorable discharge.
However, he reentered the military and that next discharge was
dishonorable. Based on this scenario, would the hiring manager
be required to start over again in the job search? Why or why
not?
