Quick question since I saw something interesting on tornstats.
If I have a job at a Candy Store and I save up and end up with 1K points. Then for whatever reason I leave or am let go do I keep my job points if I move to another Candy Store or am rehired?
Yes you will keep your job points.
Yes you keep the points. You can switch between companies of the same type and use them. If you go to another type of company you will not but the points will still be available if you switch back to the first type.
Edit- I am slow.
Same thing goes for non-player owned companies such as the hospital or casino.
Here's a silly thought....
If you leave a job, having points in it, and start a company of the same type would the points also follow you that way? I'm guessing they would but wouldn't want to second guess.
Yes, any unused points from any company type are kept.
You can see what job points you have in a company type by using the api:

e.g.
{"jobpoints":{"jobs":{"medical":5,"education":4,"law":1,"grocer":2},"companies":{"5":{"name":"Clothing Store","jobpoints":10},"12":{"name":"Grocery Store","jobpoints":5},"14":{"name":"Sweet Shop","jobpoints":5},"15":{"name":"Cruise Line","jobpoints":39},"16":{"name":"Television Network","jobpoints":17},"39":{"name":"Detective Agency","jobpoints":61}}}}
