The company should have double-checked the information that each candidate put on their applications in order to insure that they were hiring the right person. The company messed up also by telling the guy they didn’t hire why they were hiring the other guy. A lawsuit could have been avoided had they just said to him, “we’ve decided to go in another direction at this time but we will keep your application on file and should another position become available that we feel you would be suited to, we will call you.” This statement would have alleviated any liability the company accrued by giving out too much information.
