I've had people drop out after accepting an offer from me that I still chat with and have relied on for reference calls (they're a manager now). It's really not a big deal, if they got a better offer somewhere else I wouldn't want them to feel like they're stuck with my company, that's not going to be a productive relationship anyway.
- Immigration / relocation issues
- Partner / significant other (can't find a job, doesn't like the location. etc.) issues
- Health issues
- <Received a better offer but used one of the above reasons> issues
I've had candidates not show up on their first day and email in that regretfully they won't be able to start. Everyone was bummed, but no one wrote down their name in a list and shared it.
