I Recently told company A verbally I will accept their offer if they match a job offer I have from Company B and they did. When I informed Company B that I will not be accepting their offer they gave me a sweet counteroffer that i’m seriously considering, What should I say to Company A?

Be upfront but also consider your objective. Are you hoping company A will match or are you looking for a way to say to A that you’re out? Regardless, being honest with them is best.

Say you prefer them but the other company countered more

If it's a huge amount of money and you'd enjoy working at Company B, I'd go with B.

Re honesty: they would rescind their offer without a second thought I'd they thought future demand changed. I was just reading about Meta rescinding offers to college seniors.

Additional Posts in Job Searching in Accounting

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA. I am considering to start studying for the exam but I know I would need to leave my employer in order to give 110%. I am contemplating the idea of at least passing one part while employed. Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.
