My start date is today and I think my offer is rescinded

Mon Jan 05, 2009 8:18 am by Heathster

I received an offer letter on 12/18 for a start date of 1/5 (today) - the recruiter says he hasn't seen anything from the employer and he thinks the offer may be rescinded. I gave up a week's worth of contract work to take this full time job. The offer letter states that they will contact me in writing, not via text or phone, etc. - so I was awaiting further instructions. This is a remote job as I'm in CA and they are in NY.

Do I have any recourse? I do have further job leads and will start interviewing again, but in the short-term I'm out of work. I have gotten several other jobs with larger companies where the hiring was frozen, but they never jerked me around like this.

I could only find law stating that the employer had the right to rescind prior to the start date, but what about after? Do they have to pay your wages for the day? I'm a salaried professional.
