Laid off last month and negative relieving letter

So I was laid off a couple of months back and the organization was forcing me to resign. I countered their basis of decision and was able to get my severance instead of notice. Further, they were asking me to serve a reduced notice but I opposed saying this is a layoff/termination from organization’s side and was out in a week. As a result they have deliberately put things like “his performance was average” in the experience letter. Can someone help me with how to deal with this situation for prospective employers? P.S: I do not want to go the legal route with my prev org and want to focus on the next prospects so if any HR in the network can help with some advice, that would be great.

Hi. I received a termination letter from my past company. The reason was, I sent my resignation letter from home and responded only when they reached out. I know I am at fault. Should have sent resignation from office itself. But their punishment seems very harsh. I didn't get a chance to explain myself. Wherever I am applying for jobs, getting turned down as I do not have experience letter and relieving letter. Having a termination letter seems to be equal to having a criminal record. I tried requesting my ex company, but seems they have forgotten my existence, and talked in a rude manner. Day by day I am losing confidence. Trying my hand at freelancing also, but it would be like starting from zero. How can I repair my situation. Advice pls. PS: Humble request to all, no trolling please. Already I am down, don't want to get out.

Hi Guys, I need advice on something, In a service company, I was moved to a client project and it's a big application, it'll take time for me to understand but the managers are living in a fantasy world where they are expecting me to understand and start fixing bugs and delivery super early because they have very strict deadlines with the client. Client is also aggressive. I'll do my very best but my 2 questions are 1. I'm not able to deliver even after doing my best, If they lay me off because of performance, can these managers do something with my offer letter, like not giving it or writing something wrong in the relieving letter which might cause issues in background verification, if I maintain good behaviour at least. 2. How do you guys handle such retards when they are pushing down on you, how do you reply to them when they are pinging you with nonsense.

I was recently laid off. I am applying for jobs. One question that has been a bother for me is on my unfortunate past short stints. Need help from folks on how to tackle these Q's. I am applying for product / strategy roles. 2015 - tier 1 engg 2019 - tier 1 MBA 1.5 yrs - did my own startup...fairly successful but later failed due to covid 11 months - worked in a fairly well known fast growing startup - left coz wanted to move to a product centric startup 14 months - worked in product based big unicorn startup - got laid off 10 months - joined an early stage startup - startup failed and laid off again What should be my interview strategy? How do I portray my story in a positive light?

I was working in a toxic environment, which should be a separate post, too long to explain here, tldr, I was put in pip, and then I resigned and put my notice, I like a responsible employee started finishing off my projects and tasks, giving KTs to other folks and junior. but now after this my company is saying ur lwd is 2 days from now, when in my contract notice is 2 months, HR says company has the right to waive off notice period without paying severance. What can I do currently, I don't have any job back up, so have to be unemployed for a while without any severance. Is this legally right from company sides, what possible things can I do currently?

Hey there. Recently I got terminated from a big company due to performance issues according to them but I don't agree with them as I know what effort i have put in and what works I did there. If an interviewer ask a reason for leaving your last job, what should I say there?

One of my close friends is not liking the work in the current company due to the terrible WLB. He is planning to switch to a new company but doesn't want to show this current company experience of 3+ months. Have you ever come across such a situation? What's the best thing to do? If he reveals to the new employer then it won't be good on his resume because the company previous to the current one laid off 50% of employees and unfortunately he got affected too in that layoffs. So, due to tough market conditions he has joined a startup and realised that he can't sustain here for long. Please guide if it's alright not to put the last 3 months experience in the resume and apply for new jobs.

I have all the proofs, call recordings, rule book, etc which states "I can either serve 3 months notice, or buyout the 3 months with pay, without any reasons asked", but now the HR is stating the policies have changed, and you will have to follow the new rules. We haven't been informed about the rule changes nor did we sign any new rule book. What should I do? I want to get a buyout without any trouble.

Can we deny working on new stuff in notice period and just focus on KTs ? Or are we bound to work on whatever is thrown at you while serving notice. I am going to decline new work, what implications it can have?
