When they apply a few years later, they will be. Burning bridges never works out in the long run.
And how many times have you had that happen in your career? I ask because after 35 years in the industry, I've never seen it happen no matter which side of the hiring desk I've been on. And to be specific, by "it" I mean someone burns a bridge and then applies to the same company in the future.
