I guarantee she'll be hitting up Pinterest long before she hits up whatever random boutique you had an offer at.

 

they're not gonna call. Relax, and enjoy your victory.

Because when you're in a room full of smart people, smart suddenly doesn't matter—interesting is what matters.
 

I agree it is highly unlikely. That being said you have to consider if one of the higher ups who this HR demon is going to (hopefully) speak with knows someone at the boutique, decides to give him a call ask him about the offer etc. Although you could probably chalk your error up to being nervous, it would not be a good situation. In the future just tell em straight it is not worth the stress.

Rarely will any of my posts have enough forethought/structure to be taken seriously.
 

Hmm writing about it on a public forum probably not the best move, but I'm sure it'll be fine unless she goes on WSO a lot.

Harum dolor qui rerum repellat. Et enim fugiat ut ea voluptas. Officia qui totam rem est id qui ea. Ut itaque enim nostrum quia esse qui. Quia cupiditate molestiae dolores fuga necessitatibus cum.
