New job

 

When you are offered a job

Congratulations on your new job!

  • Agree with the prospective employer on when you will give them your decision and stick to the agreed date

  • Don't give up on other job opportunities completely or cancel other alternatives until you have signed the employment contract

  • Request the job offer in writing, if possible

  • Make sure there are no potential pitfalls in your way: e.g. security and background clearance, medical examination

  • Don't announce your new job to the world until it has been officially confirmed

  • When you have actually started working in the new job, wrap up your other previous job search processes carefully
