In Reply To: Got an offer from McK, but cannot accept it... I'm an APD, searching for a job for the first time. Was offered another job in Dec and couldn't extend the deadline. Fearing for not having a job after graduation, I accepted it. The offer letter says that either the company of myself can back up at any time. But I think it would be very unethical to do so. I like McK and the position here SO MUCH MORE though. So if I work in the other firm for a couple of years, would I still have a chance to come back and work in McK? Any advice or suggestions would be highly appreciated! Thanks~~
Message: Hey DataAya, I just went through a similar situation, and it took me over a month to convince myself to the "unethical bit". It's really hard but you'll feel better once it's done.And in the end, from your posts and my personal experience, you just want to go for it.
