An unusual situation came up during a job search. Received a job offer
with 1 week to make a decision. After accepting the offer, learnt that
there is a second offer (from another company) forthcoming in
a short time, prior to starting the first job.
Question: What happens if you change your mind and accept another
offer, before you have started at the first co? What if any liability
(beyond an ethical dilemma) exist?
This person works in a "regular" (non-executive) job in
the high-tech industry; there is no signed contract. However the
first position involved a (company-paid) search firm.
