Recruiter reached out about a role at a company I was fired from as an intern. The role is in another department than where I originally worked. This was 3 years ago.... do I have a shot?

Probably a long shot - but if you’re actually interested go for it. One would think the recruiter should know through solid due diligence, but who knows. How’d ya get fired?

Fired or laid off ?

Did you really get fired as an intern? if yes, there is a chance that they realize right before they make an offer.
This happened to me as the hiring manager. Our department gave me his resume. he had worked for my company (when I was in industry). I asked why he left, he gave me some good enough answers and after another round of technical interview, I requested our VP to do the final round. Right then, our HR went through the previous background check and informed the candidate that we couldn't move forward because of what he did before he got fired but of course they didn't tell me the reason

I have accepted an offer for the role of Director of Data Science & Analytics and I'll be working with old colleagues. I am very excited. I haven't given notice yet because I am waiting for the background check to complete, but my boss just asked me about traveling to a meeting in November. I start at the new job Oct 25. I'm really struggling for how to respond. If I were not leaving it is absolutely a meeting I should be at. I don't want to respond with a lie. Any dvice on how to respond?
