Was in the process of transitioning to a client in a senior role and the process suddenly stopped with the CTO saying to me “we went with someone internal”
Recently I found out that the CTO had reached out to my ex employer and my ex employer shared some very confidential information about me, which lead to me being taken out of running. All I have is some verbal tidbits from sources - and people have seen emails flying around - any suggestions- can I hold my ex employer liable for sharing

I’d definitely contact an attorney on this.

Lots of sick a holes in these big companies who actually believe this kind of behavior is ok, especially if it helps ingratiate them with a potential client or recruiter. Anything to advance their own self interest.

Lawyer. They know what is enforceable and what is not. But even if they tell you it isn’t, you can still let your old company know you are talking to a lawyer and they should be on notice that they should “reasonably anticipate” litigation. That puts them on notice they need to eg put all relevant materials (including email, texte, chat, etc) into legal hold pending any litigation. Maybe you do litigate and maybe you don’t.

Yes, but you will need evidence and witnesses. This will be hard

All they need is something from the CTO saying they had been told something that impacted the process. Then discovery go burrr.
