“Two corporate job offers rescinded within 24 hours”

Received two high-paying job offers, but they were both rescinded after I had already accepted and sent references.

What I wish I knew
"Verified references before accepting job offers"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be cautious of companies that rescind job offers and consider the potential impact of references on your candidacy"
