After all of your hard work in preparation for this moment – you get offered the job. There are some suggestions below to take into consideration…

Make sure that you want the job before accepting. As you have progressed through the recruitment process you would have found out more about your new employers organisational culture and future colleagues and managers. If you like what you see then you should feel confident in accepting the job.

If you remain a little uncertain then take the time to think about it further, and if necessary get your prospective employer to address any concerns. Don’t take too long as this may harm the relationship with your new employer.

It is advisable to confirm your acceptance of the job offer in writing even if you have already accepted verbally.

Stay in touch with your new employer during your notice period, as it will make your integration into the organisation easier and far less daunting.
