Recently, I came across a post that really made me think. A candidate resigned from his job because a company told him: > “You’re selected. We’ll send the offer letter soon.” He was excited, trusted them, declined two other offers, and resigned. Then he waited... and waited. Days turned into weeks. No call. No email. No offer letter. Eventually, the company said: > “The position is on hold.” Now he’s jobless. No backup. Only regret. ✅ Reminder: No matter how promising it sounds, don’t resign without the official offer letter. Why does this happen? Roles get frozen Budgets change Priorities shift Communication gaps But remember — the risk is yours, not theirs. A humble reminder to all professionals: → Don’t make career decisions based on hope or verbal promises. → Safeguard your peace, pay & progress. 📌 For hiring managers: → Be transparent — real lives depend on your words. Let’s spread #awareness — it might help someone avoid a costly mistake.

Guys if you get an offer letter from a company and you are confused, Check the website. If it stated: "Best Place to Work" Run immediately 😂
