Offered a job over 2 weeks ago. All details received etc for references, lovely I thought. Going smoothly. Phoned them yesterday to see how things were coming along and if they had decided on a start date for me. Informed they haven't received either references. They were requested 2 weeks ago! I have just 2 more weeks in my current job left, I don't want to get to the end and still no further forward.
Is it possible for my (nearly) new employers to withdraw job offer if they have to wait so long for the references? I contacted both to remind them about it and mentioned I can't start until they have been given.
