Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

I've got two offers, from companies X and Y. Company X wants me to start on Monday. Company Y still has BGV pending and wants me to start in the second week of August. I would prefer to work for company Y. I intend on signing both letters.

Can I start working at company X and then move onto company Y when they start? Will company Y's BGV show them that I'm already working for another company? I really don't want to be in a position where I'm waiting for company Y after having let go of the offer from company X, but at the same time I really want to work for company Y. I piam a bit worried about the BGV as it has caused issues in the past (worked abroad prior to this and also the drug test puts me in an iffy spot).

Hey folks,

Today was the date of Onboarding for my new job. For the past few weeks, I have given interviews and negotiated with two companies. The later company only matched the first offer so I naturally went with the first one.

Now, on the date of Onboarding, they called me and increased the offer which is making the same interesting.

I have not been given any company's assets on my day 1 today. Can I still make the switch now ? Also need your advice on whether I should switch ?

Thanks in advance.

Context- I recently joined X a week ago and I got a offer from Y today. I interviewed with Y a few days before joining X and told them that I will need a answer fast but they didn’t get back to me on time. They called me last week to tell me that they would like to move forward with me and rolled out an offer today. Should I leave my current company as they Y has come up with a better offer and APM role, whereas X has a lower offer (not too big of a difference) and Senior Product Analyst role. This is my first full time job, so I am confused on what to do and what could be the consequences

Hi Guys,

I am currently working at a startup and was previously working at an IT MNC for 3 months. I was put on the bench and laptops/assets were not even delivered for 2 months of requesting. When the assets arrived there was 3 weeks of compliance and regulatory training before which my position was eliminated as a result of business restructuring and downsizing. I got my startup offer (strategy type role)by then and I resigned from the IT firm with proper reliving letter and fnf settlement. I have now got an offer from a boutique consulting firm(after working in my startup for around 6 months) . I have however not mentioned this IT mnc in my resume at all since I did not gain any kind of work experience at this firm and it was not adding any value to my resume in terms of the types of roles I am looking for, I wanted to keep my other internships and startup tenure as they were more valuable. Is this going to cause an issue if I undergo a bgv process in my new firm? I have all the proper exit documents and there is no overlap of employment anywhere. Please advise. I am a 2022 pass out.

Hi all,

I have an offer from Accenture. I have accepted it. Does this mean it's finalized that I can join Accenture? 

Or should I wait for BGC to complete? It's my first switch so I'm confused. What are the next steps?

When can you consider that offer is finalized?

Have received an offer from a company and the joining date is in 3 days. However another company which is better has reached out and they have 3 rounds of interviews which I need to clear. 
Should I give a try for that company and ask them to schedule the interviews fast? If I get through in that org will it be okay if I say no to this company whose offer I already hold.

Require help regarding what to do

One of my friends has got an offer from a startup where she has to intern for 3 months, and then it gets converted to full time. Its joining date is this coming monday. But she is expecting another offer, which is a full-time job. Done with the interviews, just waiting for the offer.

So can she join the company as an intern for now, and until she gets a joining date for another company that is offering a full-time job,will it cause any issue in BGV later ?

Had to overlap working for two companies for a couple of months because of my 90-day notice period. Would this be a problem?

Two PF from two different companies

UX/UI designer

So I switched my company recently, pay is decent. But I am not liking it here. Just had an interview with another company in 15 days of joining the current(switched) company and got to know that I couldn't clear the last round :(

I told HR that I am still in my previous company, I have 2 other offers but still looking out as I have some days before joining the new company. Gave sugar coated answers as to why I want to join you guys

Till what time can I tell HRs that I have not switched yet, and have other offers. Soon 1st month's pay will be credited at the new company and it'll start showing in PF in background checks I guess?

If I tell the HRs that it's been a month at new company they'll ask shit load of questions why you want to switch so early and blah blah

Till what time do I hide my new employer

my company is wipro, i got an offer from a startup, they are asking me to join in 25 days and asking a date so that they can put it on the offer letter. But as y’all know about service based companies N.P. how do I handle this as its my first job switch im frustrated. working in angular at wipro and will work  with react in the startup.

switching job problem

I resigned from my current company and my LWD is on 10th Jan. The new company I'm joining gave me a joining date of 8th Jan with the clause that I'll only be eligible for joining bonus if I join on or before 8th Jan. 
My question is can I join the new company before my LWD? 
My current company is not cooperating to reduce my notice period by 2 days.
I guess the joining company did this on purpose so that they can skip on the joining bonus.
What could be done here?

Employment overlap for 2 days in 2 companies

Hi, I have an offer from Company A and my joining date is in next 2 weeks. But just last friday i got another offer from Company B with much higher salary than A. 

But I have interest to work on Company A. Do you think I could negotiate with Company A so close to the joining? Has anyone done it before and what was your result?
I'm worried if they may rescind the offer if I asked. Appreciate if anyone could shed some light on how to approach this. 

Thanks.

Anyone negotiated salary few days before joining?

Companies arent looking forward to hire me if I say I have 3 months notice period. If say I have 10-30 days of notice period, and if I do land a opportunity, how can I join the newer company on immediate basis without serving 3 motnhs. Buyout option is by having to pay the equivalent of 3 months, which goes beyond 200k. I am not willing to pay a company this much amount, given I only earned 300k from them. Should I first apply for notice period and then start interviewing or first land an opporutnity and then apply for notice period.

Software engineers how do youdeal with notice epriod?

I worked at company X from 2016-2021. Left March 2021, but the next thing I joined was in late 2022. Between that time, first I was preparing for Masters, got in, but ultimately decided to not go. It took 8 months as the market was really bad and I was unprepared.

Now, when I am looking to switch from current job, I have gotten a couple of queries around why the gap etc. I originally thought I will explain the situation but now to prevent getting filtered out in screening, is it okay to write company X tenure from March 2021 to March 2022, reducing the gap?

All help/inputs from experienced folks is appreciated 🙏🏽
