​​​​@@aishah5244 Wrong. Very wrong. HR department keeps personnel files. It contains your job offer and your response among other documents (contracts, NDAs etc). If the person signs and bails, they won't get another offer even if the entire department changes. Your file will be marked for future HR colleges. There is plenty of money in the recruiting process, once you sign, your new team is scheduled accordingly etc. That company won't be willing to take another shot at you. Not to mention that some HR people stay in the same industry and just move between companies/competitors. If your job is industry-specific, you might encounter them at another competitor few years later. You wouldn't know though, since your resume will be simply put to "No" file

Put them off for a week or two? You must be joking. LOL. Most companies want an answer in 48 hours. DO THIS: Accept the job if you're under a strict deadline and then ditch if you get a better offer. Keep interviewing until you get what you want. I would not necessarily tell any employer you're still interviewing other places because they have no right to that information. Don't feel bad because companies have the right to rescind a job offer at the last minute. "At Will" employment works both ways!!

Doesnt always work, especially with recruiters because they want to get it done as fast as they can.

This could backfire. I’ve been on the hiring side and had candidates hesitate on accepting an offer and my boss thought if they weren’t jumping at it then he didn’t think they’d give 💯 on the job. I’m not saying I agreed with him, but there are employers out there like this, and while it would be wise to steer away from those types of bosses (trust me), I realize not everyone can afford to lose a good job offer in hopes another comes along. I would do this only if I really wasn’t too excited about the job and willing to lose an offer in hopes of getting the job I really wanted.

This was the exact info I needed for the moment. I am interviewing with 2 companies. One has me setup for a 3rd interview with the IT team. The other is a hospital I have already interviewed with twice. The IT Manager has submitted a higher level position to HR that he feels I better fit into. The only problem is that job hasn't posted on the site yet. So, I'm kind of in a wait pattern for two positions that I'm excited about. DOH! By site, I mean the company career page.

No always take the first offer and say you need two weeks to start then if another offer presents itself also except it and say you may start in three weeks time then if another offer arrive late accept it but say you can start next month. If one job sucks nor doesn't sit well you can leave and jump to the next offer and so forth. Always make sure to put you're own interest ahead of any company.

You should do a video about how to reject job offer (including being approached on LinkedIn before even proper recruitment process starts) to leave a good impression for future. Sounds easy but I bet it could be done in more professional way

since when did this happen where there is too much jobs and people have so much options? Since when did it become it being so hard to even get a job offer to getting so many at a time?

I'm going through this now

I will tell you with 100% certainty that in nursing, the attitude is that we are a dime a dozen. I have had employers tell me they cannot wait for me to work out a 30 day notice. Many healthcare employers would withdraw their offer. Keep in mind that many of these places don't even have HR, and it is completely at the discretion of your immediate boss whether to hire you. If that boss is a narcissist, this would be the nail in your coffin.

An offer is not bona fide until it is in writing and with specifics such as start date and salary. For starters. BTW, keep interviewing until you start and even after, keep talking and applying. I know people who started and hated the job within a week and quit in two more...me. Also people who started and were laid off in days.

I'm literally in this situation right now 😅.

Best to give a range of your desired salary - Not making it too low/too high would be alright. This range would be important for you & the target company to negotiate.

@pinkmark4047

11 ай бұрын

As someone who has been in a similar situation, name a salary expectation. The indecisiveness with naming a salary will tell the hiring manager this: That whatever the position actually pays is either too high or too low for you and that you may be unsure of your own skillset that you may be bringing to the job. They want to hit a sweet spot with the salary they give. If they have $60,000 for the position, they'll aim for finding someone that they can pay $55,000 to $57,000 for the work (they will get closer to $60,000 if the candidate proves exceptional either from prior experience or work history). You not naming a salary gives the impression that they should either lowball you (which can easily backfire on them and they will want to avoid) or that you may be expecting an exuberant salary (by their metric). If the listing for the position doesn't outright list a salary range, compare similar positions in the field from other companies and draw an average from there. If they do list a salary range, don't be shy and aim for the middle. If the salary range is $55,000 to $60,000 ask for $57,000. Then see how the company conducts raises and when you will be eligible for one. If you genuinely feel that you deserve the full $60,000 maximum of the range, ask for that. You may be surprised to see the company agree or at the very least, negotiate with you to stay fairly close to that amount. Hope this helps. It's tough out there but don't be afraid to stand your ground. A complacent job candidate can only get so far.

Learn a trade.

I can’t even find one offer, all the jobs I’ve been applying to are ghost jobs and companies’ evergreen pipelining bs. Here what I’m telling all of you new graduate job seekers. These days the evergreen pipelining ghost jobs posting from companies, they are looking for GPA of 3.5 or better with experience. If your GPA is 3.0 to 3.4, then you’re second class citizens. And if your GPA is 2.9 to 2.0 then you went to college for nothing, your diploma is worthless, you can’t even apply to get a master degree. And these days the jobs with pay you want are offer to PhD graduates. And before picking a major, look at job availability first, I know it will be hard, since every companies are doing ghost jobs to look for the best, that’s why they post the same jobs throughout the years every month, but not hiring anyone.

What if one of the Interviews has high turnover... examples most employees leave after one year but the pay is decent 🤔... Should one Interview anyway for the experience?

I don't know what kind of company he thinks he is applying for, but most companies won't accept that. If you are hedging then THEY will walk away. Understand it from their side... You put them "On hold" and you may not even take the job even then. They are very likely to drop you off and go look at no2 if there wasn't much between the two. So... Just be VERY careful when doing this. If you didn't shine as much as you think then you may lose your offer.

if you ask for a day or 2 to consider the offer, and the company closes the deal right away as a result, then they probably did yourself a favour. It was probably not a good company to work at. The business needs are never such that 1 or 2 extra days before you join, means life or death for the company. Managers from companies who do that are about showing their strong ego. They want to feel superior. If you ask that manager to wait for a day or 2, that makes him/her feel like you are challenging their strong ego. He/She doesn't like that.

If you are willing to piss around at THAT point then what kind of worker are you going to be when you are in the job? No. Most hiring managers will see that and move on. Less hassle, less stress and less chances of having to do follow ups. So unless you really shine or you have that oddly specific skill set, which is honestly one hell of a bargaining chip...

@@Kalamain "If you are willing to piss around at THAT point then what kind" Not like that. You're not begging the company to offer you a job. You share your interest in a job they offer by applying, you meet the guys at the hiring company, they make you an offer. Then all you're saying is : "thank you, I need to consider the offer". Until the contract is signed, there is room for negotiation. It's not about attempting to make things difficult for the sake of it. (that would be stupid) If they offer to employ you, that means you already showed you "really shine". The company offers a job to what they feel is the best candidate. If after going through all this (often at least 3 interviews), then give up because you said you want a day or 2 to think, they have wasted time and money. They show they manage things poorly. At past job applications, hiring companies would usually initiate to offer me to reply within 24/48h. Again, you're asking for 48h, not 3 weeks. Asking for 3 weeks would mean you're waiting for replies from other job interviews. That would be a different scenario that shows you're not really interested.
