turning down a job offer

My husband needs to decline an offer. While the majority of thier correspondence has been on email, I advised him he should call to decline (obviously emailing would be less-anxiety for him). Did I advise him correctly?

Re: turning down a job offer

  • If it's a company he doesn't have an existing working relationship with, I would think email would be fine.  If it's someone he'll have to deal with in the future I would call.

    This 100%

  • If the offer was initially made verbally and he said he get back to them, then I would call.  If the offer was made via email than that is how I would decline.
  • I think calling is a nice option, but it might be awkward for both parties involved for the decline to occur over a phone call if the offer came via email and most of the communication prior to this was email. It possibly will feel out of place. But a phone call is absolutely the more personalized way to do it.
