Offer got rescinded 3 days before my start date
I was honestly having the best day yesterday. I was excited about finally starting this new job, graduating college, feeling like things were actually working out.
Then today I got a call from the HR manager saying the company is going under and they have to rescind my offer.
The worst part is that I had another offer lined up, but I chose this one instead. I turned down the other opportunity because this felt like the right move. Now, 3 days before my start date, I’m left with nothing.
I genuinely don’t understand how a company can extend an offer, set a start date, and then collapse before I even get through the door. I’m not even angry or sad at this point, just annoyed because now I have to start the entire job search process all over again after thinking I was finally done.
