How Do I Take Back (Rescind) an Offer Letter I Sent?

Important: 

  • If your company uses DocuSign, the Offer Letter cannot be rescinded after all signatures have been collected. And keep in mind, DocuSign does not refund any letter credits.
  • An offer letter cannot be changed after it was sent (with or without DocuSign). To make changes, you must follow these steps to rescind the Offer Letter, recreate a new one, and then resend the new offer letter.

Follow these steps:

  1. After you sent an offer letter (see topic above), go to the candidate's details screen and click Rescind Offer Letter. A notification appears verifying the letter was rescinded.
