Good nights sleep, that’s it

The basics first (1. know your resume 2. be ready to share why you want the role and why the particular company) Next, I would prepare some questions to ask. I used to ask questions to gain insight on the culture of the team I would be working with. Lastly, let them know you want the job. Good Luck!

Anticipate what questions they may ask and write out those answers.

Hey all! I went through the interviewing process with a company and we had a verbal agreement on X amount of salary per year. They liked me and extended an offer but the offer was for $15K less than what we agreed bc that’s what HR approved for. I was desperate so I took it. Accepting this offer meant that I had to relocate to the other side of the country. Omw that was 2500 miles, I received a call that they rescinded the offer. Is there anything legal that I can do to sue them?
