Icon sent me an offer letter via email to sign a month ago with a start date that is 3 weeks out. I reached out to negotiate the pay the day after I received the offer and tried to connect with the recruiter.

A week of no response and then I get an email from the recruiter stating “please disregard the offer letter as the position has already been filled”

I only asked for a 12 percent increase in the negotiation so I’m not sure what would make them rescind their offer like this. Or is this something to expect from ICON going forward?

I am US-based.
