Can a job take back an offer? YES | 5 Reasons Job Offers Get Rescinded – And No, It's Not Illegal

Once you receive and accept a job offer, you may think everything is smooth sailing. You stop applying to jobs. You decline new interview requests. Maybe you even take a trip or treat yourself to a fancy dinner to celebrate. You probably think you’re in the clear. I have news for you – YOU’RE NOT. Many people allow job offers to give them a false sense of security. But just because you have a job offer doesn’t mean you have a job just yet. In fact, that “signed, sealed, delivered” job offer can be RESCINDED at any time for any reason. Most people don’t think this can happen, but it can, and it does – frequently. Sometimes job offers are rescinded for reasons out of your control. Other times YOU can be the reason a job offer is retracted. Regardless of the reason, you should be prepared to pivot and continue your job search to land a new opportunity without missing a beat. In this video, I give a few reasons why you may experience a job offer getting rescinded and how you can keep yourself prepared in case this happens to you.
