I just wondered if anyone had been in a similar situation and had any advice, as I've never had a situation like this before.
Since getting my anxiety under control, I've been looking to get back into work. I was offered a job on Tuesday and accepted it. It wasn't my first choice of all the applications I have out there, but I'm not in a position to turn down an offer, and it's a good job.
Anyway, about an hour after accepting, my first choice job offered me a face-to-face interview. This at the end of a really competitive process of online assessments and telephone interviews. I really want this job and have done well just to reach the final stage. If the interview goes well, I should hear pretty soon afterwards, and I'd want to accept.
So my question is, if I were to be offered that first choice job, I would go about letting down the first one I accepted? Does this happen a lot? Am I legally allowed to do this? My start date is May 22nd, so it's possible I won't have actually started before I find out. They've drawn my contract up and emailed it to me, but I haven't signed anything. But I have accepted the job offer verbally.
