Hi,
I got a pretty good job offer from a top telecom company I had worked with previously for 3 years, and had an awesome track record, with excellent performance throughout. I resigned from my present job (sent my manager a resignation email) on the day I was packing my bags to go n join the new job. However, all of a sudden I got a call from the HR stating they were withdrawing their offer due to a negative feedback from one of the senior managers I worked under earlier. I was taken aback n had no idea what to do. I realized that it would be better to secure my present job, n immediately contacted my HR and senior managers that I was withdrawing my resignation.
Now my question is that should I go ahead and join my previous company if they ask me to, since they haven't cancelled the offer made to me yet. Can I take any legal action against them? Is it always better to first join the new job and then resign from the previous job? (although its legally wrong.)
