How to Handle Multiple or Competing Job Offers

You’ve done it! You aced the interview. You impressed the hiring managers. And now, you’ve received not one but multiple job offers. But what now? How should you navigate this delicate situation that requires careful consideration to ensure that you don’t burn bridges or miss out on the best opportunity? 

Before we start, these are basic guidelines for mid-level roles. For very experienced roles, some of the strategies and processes can be different to the role and industry. If you have an experienced recruiter to turn to they can help navigate some of the trickier issues here. 

The industries we work within, the varied clients we serve, and the exceptional candidates we help position have provided us with the ability to empathize—to see this process from every angle. We want to pass that knowledge on to you.

Cost of a Mis-Hire

The estimated cost of a bad hire ranges from 5 to 27 times the amount of the person's actual salary.

The Harvard Business Review stated that over 80% of employee turnover can be attributed to poor hiring choices.

Mis-Hire Costs Include:

• Hiring Costs

• Compensation

• Severance

• Opportunity Cost

• Wasted Hours

The ability to attract, recruit, and retain great talent is the key to success for any business.
