Canceling Callbacks

Post by Anonymous User » Thu Aug 20, 2015 8:41 pm

Not sure if this required a new thread, but I couldn't find anything on it. If we receive an offer from a firm we like, but are not certain about accepting, how do we cancel callbacks we've already scheduled? I can't say I've accepted a new offer, but I don't want to say "I just don't want to interview at your firm anymore..." Thank you!

Why can't you just say you've accepted another offer?

Just say you plan on accepting. They won't push back, its pretty standard.

Doesn't really matter. It's actually easier to be evasive over the phone if you know it's not going to be firm X, but you haven't accepted at firm Y or Z.
