They were invited back after getting fired.

Would they need to go through the entire interview process again? It would seem fair to just give them their old job back since they already did it.

It wasn't a regular occurrence, managers didn't really abuse it. The one time I saw it happen directly, the people were invited back to take their old job under the new manager, who now had to backfill the positions, without an interview.
