i turned down a job offer, is it possible to back? how do i proceed?

Question

i turned down a great job offer because i had another job offer that i thought was more estable. as the days go by, i am realizing that all the reasons i used to make my decision is not quite accurate. I want to take the other job i refused. is it possible?

Answer 1

Yes, it's very possible. You need to call the person that extended the offer and tell them that after careful consideration you've realized that they are your employer of choice and that you were mistaken in turning down their offer. I did this once and the employer still gave me the job as I was the candidate of choice and the position wasn't filled. The worst they can do is tell you no, but I doubt they will if they haven't filled it. Good luck!

Answer 2

I believe it depends on the reason you gave them when you turned it down. If you told them about the other job, your chances are slim. I am a hiring manager and of the other hiring managers I know would probably not re-offer the job to you. Saying no and then yes makes you look like a flip flopper, with the chance of you not staying at this job either.

Answer 3

It's possible. I know it happened at the company I worked for last. I would guess you'd want to call or e-mail the HR director or the person who interviewed you and tell them you'd like to be reconsidered for the position if it's still available. Then you'll just have to see what they say.

Answer 4

probably not. the employer would had to fill the area with some different person and no matter if or not they did not you would elect a reason behind asking decrease back the provision, yet are you waiting to imagine of a reason they're going to settle for? i will't.

Answer 5

Its possible, It really depends on how you turned them down. The best thing to do is contact the HR.
