Is it legal to have a job offer recinded because you did not agree to allow the company to exploit your personal IP?

Yes. The law in Georgia is employment at will. This means that the employer has no obligation to hire or keep an employee. Assuming that by "IP" you mean intellectual property, an employer can (and many do) condition employment on your agreement to turn intellectua ,property over to the employer. If the offer is being made as part of an employment contract (which is the manner in which most IP transfer agreements come into being) be sure to have an employment lawyer look at it.


I had a patent approved while working for my former company. Can I use the patent after I leave the company?

It depends on the employment contract you may have had with your previous employer. Some stipulate that anything you invent or develop while in their employment become their property. On the other hand - if your invention had nothing to do with your employment, and it was something you developed away from company property and on your own time, you may have a perfectly valid sole claim to it.
