Help: Reneging an Offer

Hey all,

As the title suggests, I need some advice on reneging an offer. I had signed an offer letter at a Big 4 for TP earlier this fall and have just now received an offer I cannot pass up on. My question is how should I proceed with reneging the offer? Do I call my recruiter or send her an email? Do I have to tell my school? I'm worried about a potential ban from the career centre for reneging so late. Would appreciate any advice.

Thanks.

EDIT: I will be reneging a 2019 SA internship for another SA 2019 internship.

 

I had to do it this year and just called the main guy I interviewed with at the firm and then talked to every other person I interviewed with (like 3 to 5 people). It was brutal, but I feel like its the most respectful way to go about it.

 

So you called the main guy, but did you call or email the other 3 to 5 people? I had two recruiters and then two people in TP that interviewed me. I guess I should reach out to all four?

 

Thanks for feeling like you can comment on someone's decision based on their personal subjective choices. Plus, if that's what you drew from what I wrote, learn to read. A job doesn't have to be your life, but if you're chasing prestige and not factoring who you are into the decision, it is a huge mistake.
