Made a mistake signing my offer letter

Hi there,

This is kind of a “stupid” question - I received an offer from a consulting firm about 3 weeks ago and I signed it. However, I just figured out that I made a mistake when signing the offer - in a section where I have to choose one of the two options, I clicked on both of them. Now, I wonder if this will create a problem for my offer status. Thanks!!

 

Best,

HI there, 

Congratulations on getting an offer and best of luck on your consulting journey ahead!

I really can't see the scenario in which this will create problems for you. If in doubt, just reach out to HR and tell them you believe you might have made a mistake and you would like to adjust it. I'm sure this is not the first time this happens. 

Best,

Cristian

Hi there,

Congratulations on the offer! In terms of your question:

Q: I just figured out that I made a mistake when signing the offer - in a section where I have to choose one of the two options, I clicked on both of them. Now, I wonder if this will create a problem for my offer status. 

This is not a problem, you just need to inform HR, they should be able to recommend how to fix it.

Best of luck with your new job!

You can follow up with HR without having to be concerned. These are legitimate follow-ups so don't hesitate

Hey there,

Not at all. Just call your recruiter and tell them. They will send you a new document to sign…

Cheers,

Just reach out to them to correct the mistake. Don't worry, you'll still get the option you prefer.

Just send a quick email to HR explaining your error. This is an admin issue with absolutely nothing to worry about.
