Rescinded and Deferred Entry Level Jobs

February 24, 2009 Posted By: Trevor Wilson Category: Offers


Like many other job blogs, I’ve been hearing about companies rescinding and deferring offers for Entry Level Jobs. This is particularly concerning given that I focus on New Grads and Entry Level Jobs.

But instead of just reporting on it, The CareerXroads Annex has a list of interesting ways for companies in this position help to soften the blow.

If I were to add anything to this list, it would be to have these companies help with job-specific professional development (other than just grad school). Even offering unpaid internships could help New Grads gain a foothold from the experience side of things.

Have you been in this situation? Leave us a comment and let us know.
