HR Perspective: How to Properly Rescind Job Offers

Which stage of the economy are we currently in? From a business perspective, the economy is at a low point. Several companies are scaling back their spending, increasing their prices, and pausing their hiring efforts.  In this episode of the Hire Calling Podcast, Pete and Ricky share tips and strategies for rescinding job offers.  As a consultant with an HR background, Ricky suggests the best approaches to take as a leader that will protect the company's brand. But then comes the question, if executives are making the decision to separate, why are they making offers in the first place?  According to Ricky, there are many legalities and approvals that make it too late to form explanations. But externally and internally, communication is the key. Start painting an early picture if possible, so that people can see what is happening and independent department leaders can make decisions sooner. If you are a leader needing to make a big choice, whether it is rescinding, laying off, or putting in place a hiring freeze, you are going to want to listen in and take notes on Pete and Ricky’s advice.
