Turning Down an Offer

A job offer is basically an official agreement that a company issued to the student as an employee after his/her graduation. Socially this is a serious matter and deserves to be handled carefully.

  • Make sure to turn down companies politely, with courtesy and trustworthiness, express your gratitude to the offer and apologize for your decision to decline it.
  • In case you tell your decision to them in the condition of being impending graduation, please note that you may visit them and apologize for your decision to decline it directly.
  • Start with a phone call to the relevant person since he/she may not notice your email if it is sent to his/her spam folder.

Certificate issuance

When you receive a job offer, you may be asked to submit the following documents to the company:

-Certificates of expected graduation
-Transcripts
-Health checkup reports
