Message Name: if you get better offer before starting...
Date Posted: 02/06/2006
Message: I have a dilemma. I verbally accepted a post with Accenture. They faxed me letter late last week and are supposed to send me physical mail this week (I guess I will get it tomorrow or Wednesday). Start date of 20th. I have been extended an interview with another firm (midsize speciality consulting firm) on Friday. It is way way better money (about 35% more). Part of me wants to not schedule the interview, but I think I should interview and see what the opportunity is. If the interview goes well, and if I get extended an offer and decide to take it, could that backfire on me for rejecting the offer with Accenture after accepting it? I would of course, reject it before starting. Would they not consider me for future opportunities with Accenture? Thanks for honest feedback in advance.
