Question

You are senior in college. You sent your resume to a half-dozen companies hoping to get a job. A month ago you interviewed at ABC Corporation and XYZ Corporation. Two weeks ago XYZ Corporation offered you a job. One week ago you accepted their offer, agreeing to start work a month after graduation. Today you received a much better offer from ABC Corporation.
a) What should you do?

Answer 1

Answer:

If company ABC is a much better career choice then you should accept the offer.

Explanation:

The main consideration in this scenario should be career growth. As a new graduate one will want to start with a company that has good training programmes and possibility for career growth.

The main consideration at this stage should not be the salary that is offered. While this is a good incentive, earning a good salary without progressing in your career will be a bad choice in the long run.
