How to renege an offer?
I accepted a banking offer 3 weeks ago (after getting one extension). Now I got the buyside offer I really wanted. What's the best way to renege? Should I send flowers?

Call and say you’re not doing the internship. It’s not that deep
I'd send an email. Much better that way.
Disagreed
this was an associate level offer, does that matter?
Ghost these mofos lmao
Definitely no flowers...
Call and tell your contact and then also follow up in writing (email) to confirm it. Don't tell them where you are going
Spot on, always call and follow up in writing. Emphasize you are terminating your contract immediately.
Best of luck
