I am no lawyer, but I think promissory estoppel only applies if you relied on the job offer in some way... for example, if you terminated your lease, resigned from your current job, or something like that.
- michaelochurch 13y agoHard to say. Companies can rescind offers for business reasons (i.e. plant closing) and that's legal; but personal rescission is not something the courts like, and it's terrible PR. They'll settle. You have to threaten to sue because if you threaten to blog, that's technically extortion and you'll lose all the leverage you have. Regarding reliance, I believe you are technically correct; however, you can certainly include the time that you would have been job-searching, and also the loss of the existing job.
