Family member took an OK job via recruiter & agency who put work into getting it for her b4 being offered a perfect & much more exciting one

Now she feels honour bound to stay with first coz of work done on her behalf but I'm suggesting she should think of her own future prospects
-
Be apologetic. Pay the commission the agency would have earnt. Explain the amazingness of the opportunity. Surely that's acceptable?
-
recruite, agency and other employer are just "entities". Nobody will thank her that she stayed with the ok. job. But she will >

> regret that decision for a long time I guess.Nothing is harder than"Why didn't I take that opportunity back then" in 10 years!

I'm not the most
#professional person but I would take the better job & thank the first would-be employer & briefly explain why. -
I have done exactly this. And on very short notice.

Look out for number one. You don't leave them any worse off. They didn't yet have you. They still don't.

Take the job you want. Obligation to recruiter and other employer don't outweigh this.

happens more than you think. Call first job with, "My situation suddenly changed and I will be unable to work." Give big thanks.
