JSA - saying no to interview

Hi,

I told the jobcentre people about the interview.

I did get a call to attend the interview. But at this stage, since I got a call about another interview elsewhere (much better job) I wish to withdraw from the first one.

So, the question is.. will the jobcentre find out I turned down a request for interview ?

Thanks.

    They may - they may not. Surely though, refusing an interview merely on the basis of being offered another interview is foolish.
  • The JCP does on occasion follow up with employers to check your progress, so to refuse the interview would be foolish. Even more foolish is refusing it because you *might* be successful in another interview.

    ~Are both interviews at the same time, is there any reason why you cant attend both, if they are at the same time, try and rearrange one of them.
