I was recently offered a great job (manager level) and I really got a good feeling from the team when I interviewed with them. I signed the offer letter (and have a start date) I let the recruiter know I signed the letter and asked a couple of questions about the hybrid working schedule. The recruiter responded and I thanked him, but I made a typo. Will they take back the offer?

Congratulations! I doubt you have anything to worry about.

Many years ago, I was a freelance copy editor/proofreader for Marriott International. They had me work on-site for one day to observe my style/work ethic and test me.

Everything went well and I was hired, but only worked remotely.

Two weeks later, I was emailing back some heavily marked-up brochures and I made a typo in the email explaining my edits.

I was mortified; they, thankfully, thought it was funny.

Relax. Everyone makes mistakes in emails and texts.

Good luck! 👍🏻

And depending on the typo, their brains may not even register it as a typo as we often speed read through emails “assuming” words and actually not seeing misplaced letters along the way. Overall, you should be fine.

Please don’t lose sleep over this or let it rent any space. Your desire to be perfect is admirable, and don’t lose the quality in you that wants to deliver the best. You will be given grace and the definition of “best” changes to “best we can do right now” the further you climb. Enjoy your weekend and congrats on the promotion.

And if you need more reason not to sweat it- you did it to the recruiter. They don’t care after the offer is signed. They make money when they place talent agencies like. Agency liked you and you signed the offer. Recruiter probably didn’t notice and if they did, no way they cared enough to do the worst case scenario you’re playing out in your head.
