If your employer changes the qualifications for your job, and hire someone else for your job, are you entitled to unemployment benefits?

I have been at my job for over 2 1/2 years. I have done a great job and I have developed my position. Now my employer wants to run with the job I have defined and hire someone with a masters. I have a BA. If they do this and try to demote me can I file for unemployment?



I'll let you do the researching because I cannot answer all those questions I have floating around in my head, but you can and will.

I will simply, caution you to be thorough, and read more than just one scenario that you think might fit.
