It was very good artcle.But I want to know,how one should react when a person is being considered by two different companies for two different positions at the same time and he first gets the offer from the company (say company A) which in his mind was his second preference.The company (Say Company B) which he actually wanted join only offers him the Job almost 1-2 months after he takes up the offer with company A.
How does he now get the job,which he really wanted initially ie with Co.B.
the same should to the employers.after giving interview i had to wait for 20 days. then i received a call from hr person that i had been selected and would get an offer letter within a weeks time but even after 15 days i am still waiting for the letter.the hr guy's phone is continously switched off.i rejected another offer because of this communication.i think irresponsible hr people deserve to be put in same situtaion by the candidates by being silent when they want to reject an offer.
Believe it or not, an HR manager of a leading IT company advised me not to turn up if I Was'nt interested in their company. She was not known to me. All that she told me was that you should immediatedly grab a job offer if u get.
I strongly agree that rejecting a job offer gracefully is very professional approach to say NO to the companies ,
but the HR of the companies should also have to be more professional, as when a candidate is not selected they just simply say It was a nice meeting you rather than listing down the point of not getting selected (politely) or JUST sending a mail saying the candidate is not selected.
Wont you thing that declaring the outcome of the interview (by HR) to the candidate is also a professional approach?

You are spot on my friend. Absolutely correct. The HR must give a feedback to the candidate after his interview rounds even if he is not selected.
There is nothing wrong in doing that.(Especially in IT companies.) All these CEOs and managers in IT companies play with the emotions of a potential employee. They forget ethics and keep playing the emotional games with his POTENTIAL employee. My dear IT employees, Don't be too sentimental.Work hard.But don't think too much about the employers.After all they are employers and won't even look at you if they get a better guy. It's all business.
I have always met crossroads where I get multiple offers at same time and have to choose one. Thankfully I declined courteously one of the offer I was given few months back. Now I have joined the same company and feel comfortable because I had chosen my words carefully while denying the offer. Its a small world..you keep meeting same people..
If HR want that the candidates should be sincere about,then vice e versa they also shuld be first as a human resoure person inform that by e mail or tel.that 'received your cv,since it is not relevant or giving the reason of non consideration we will not be able to call you for an interview.we may consider when ever vacancy arises. santosh
The articals like this are rails of career for people like me. I thanks to Mr.Sunder Ramachandran for his artical and hope for more such articals in future.
i appreciate the article but the same should also be told to the HR people of the companies which just take multiple rounds of interview and suddenly dont even call you and let you know the reason for not calling you for further rounds.
First of all most companies will promise "best salaries" and "perfect match for your profile" and then they stop calling you after couple of rounds of interview because your salary is too high or they are looking at people with experience in someother technologies. Isnt it obvious that the people also want to be equally ruthless with the people who have gone through it so many times?
