China HR boss threatens to blacklist job-rejecting woman, cites ‘spirit of contract' breach
A university graduate in eastern China who said she was threatened with blacklisting by a human resources (HR) staffer after she turned down a job offer has taken mainland social media by storm.
A public backlash against the HR worker came after the graduate released an appeal post on a leading social media platform on July 20, Hubei TV reported.
The 23-year-old woman graduated from a university in the city of Nanjing, Jiangsu province this summer.
She said she got a job offer from an outsourcing company in the city.

However, the woman did not want the job after she found out that the company pays salaries at the end of each month and its premises are a long distance from her rented flat.
