And they brought him in and liked him. They wanted to make him an offer. So DH was right; the kid is a winner.  Whether or not he takes the job is irrelevant.  DH put forward a viable and qualified candidate. That's his part in this...not making sure the kid takes the job. [/quote]

But DH did what he did because the young man told him that he wanted the job and now he is backing out. Either that or OP's DH totally mis-read young man's intention from the beginning. [/quote]

I don't know about you, but I've definitely applied for jobs thinking that they look great on paper, but when I get there and meet the people, I realize it's a total sh*tshow and not a fit.  I withdraw from the process. You don't know at the beginning if it's a fit. You're making a decision about them like they're making a decision about you. [/quote]

NP. The young man said his reason was financial, not due to a bad fit. He knew the salary going into the process, if it wasn't enough he could have withdrawn then.

Sometimes I've said the reason is financial because I don't want to call them a**hats to their faces.  [/quote]
