What happens when you accept a job offer?
You may have immediately accepted the offer because you were delighted at the possibility of working with them, but your circumstances changed, another job offer arrived in the mail or after thinking it through, you decided that the job was not the best fit. It happens.
Why did I turn down a job offer?
After you’ve thought about it some more, the position might not seem as good as it did when you first accepted the offer. Perhaps a family emergency has changed your situation, or you have gotten a dream job opportunity that you just can’t turn down.
