Also, Dolores refers to it while interviewing him (when she was 
observing his class).  He says he has worked at Hogwarts for 16 
years and she comments that he applied for the DADA position but DD 
didn't hire him.  She wonders why and he snarls, 'you'll have to ask 
him.'  Sorry, but I don't have the exact reference handy.
