EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode of Chan with a Plan, Max Speaks with Colleen Paulson, a career consultant with her business Colleen Paulson Consulting. In this conversation, Colleen discusses what happens when a job offer gets rescinded and how you can recover from it happening. QUOTES FROM COLLEEN “It's getting in the mindset that just because this didn't work out for you, it has nothing to do with your abilities. You know, you shouldn't let it shake your confidence once they take it personally, even though it has nothing to do with their ability.” - Colleen Paulson “Try to make friends with some recruiters on LinkedIn and really be honest about the situation that you find yourself in. Again, you don't need to hide that information. It's nothing to be embarrassed about, but you want to be proactive about reaching out to folks.” - Colleen Paulson “You need to be really careful in your resume. It is a marketing document, but when you are giving that to a company, you're saying that this is true.” - Colleen Paulson   TIMESTAMPS [01:17] Is getting your job offer rescinded common?
