Actually, our company is 70 percent female and all employees of both sexes are analyst-level, so I don't think that was an issue. And I know that she was interested in the work, because she was quite engaged and had told me in the past couple of months that she was quite interested in the work. To be honest, I'll bet anything that this is just an immature college student decision where she wanted to get the highest starting salary that she could. The other job is a boring-sounding reliability engineer job, but I'm sure as an engineering job that it pays more. I was an undergrad once, and I know that starting salary is a scorecard for people at that stage of life. The part that ticks me off is that she shouldn't have even been interviewing. She had already accepted a job and had even started work. I remember when I was in undergrad that the career office wouldn't allow you to interview if you had already accepted a job.

Be careful replacing her with a cat.
Your new employee might just pee all over your office furniture. And they might smell kinda fishy too. Something to think about. |

Maybe she got to looking at
1. Student Loan Debt "its gonna take 15 years at HOW MUCH?" 2. Weddings.....photographer, $3500 Cake $1500, Ice sculptures....dinner for 300......... I can see why a few grand would entice someone young away. I wonder if you still have a chance to call her in, explain that you like her, think she's been doing a great job, has unlimited potential in your company, and up the ante.............? |

2+2 = 4 the square root of twenty is the same as the number that if you multiply it by itself it equals twenty. I can start in about.... two weeks. ![]()

Neg rep her ass! Send her an Unpleasant PM, or maybe even put her on Ignore for the 2 weeks.
If she quit, and you don't really HAVE to have her, to protect your interests, you should send her ass home at 8am tomorrow. |

I know where you're coming from on employer loyalty. I got laid off when I was in the defense industry in a rather brutal manner, and then my resignation from my former consulting firm came after I got screwed out of literally hundreds of thousands of dollars by my crooked ex-boss. But the defense industry thing was just business after a big contract got canceled, and the ex-boss thing was just my misfortune of working at a firm that got taken over by an insane crook right before I got a partnership offer. Bad timing in both cases. So truthfully, the only two professional jobs I had before starting my company both ended badly. That still doesn't mean that I would screw over another company that offered me a job, though. Honestly, the thing that frustrates me most is that it was looking like she would've been a good employee, and I just didn't expect this out of her. It's disappointing behavior.
