Naturally, the fact that a Pixar animated character could be the inspiration for the design of NASA's newest spacesuit is quite impressive.…; Added by Valentino Martinez at 2:18am on March 2, 2014

Comment on: Topic 'Working with Candidates that accepted Counter Offer?': offer so they can make an attempt to get more money or a different job where they are currently. That is snakey and dishonest. And it bites them in the end if they do it. Some employers will never consider a candidate who is offered and turns it down or accepts and rescinds but i have had some who will and have. It normally depends on the circumstances. I had one last year who had been interviewing for almost four months. My client finally came up with an offer almost 5 months after his first interview. He gave a verbal acceptance pending his attorney reviewing the employment contract. He signed. Subsequent to signing, his mother passed away leaving him with a messy estate situation as the trustee. His employer made him a counter offer. He elected to accept it due to a need to be in that state or to have to travel back and forth for court appearances as the estate was being contested. Was he dishonest? I didn't think so and neither did my client. They of course withdrew their offer but let him know that when his personal situation was settled they would be open to making another offer that would be equal to the buy back. I don't think every candidate who takes a buy back is dishonest. Many never thought there would be one and are shocked and/or flattered when they get one. I think sometimes they get muddled with thinking that the devil they know who seems to want them more than they thought is better than the angel they don't know yet. It is almost always not the case but i have a problem blaming all of it on honesty or character. Like most things in recruiting or business in general there are always exceptions so i think we have to look at each individual on a per case basis. …; Added by Sandra McCartt at 3:39pm on April 4, 2011
