pre-callback withdrawal

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Aug 29, 2014 2:01 pm

I'm sure there's a thread on this, but the terms are too general to get a decent search.
I just got an offer from a place I really like and would accept over a number of callbacks that I am yet to go on. 1) Should I wait for a paper offer to withdraw? and 2) should my email be anything different from what I would write if I'm accepting the offer (I'm not, still have firms I really like coming up)?

I don't think you have to be that specific. Just write/call to cancel the CB and explain that you have decided to take an offer elsewhere. If they press you for the firm, just say the name of the firm you currently think you're going to accept the offer from. Doesn't really matter if you don't ultimately end up going there.
