Precisely. Also if they meet someone who is an immediate joiner, first question they ask if why did you leave your job without another offer! I mean do you have to pay my bills or rent? Your role is just to match if the candidate fits the job profile and forward their resume. Never understood this outdated thinking that if someone is not working currently, there is something wrong with them. Maybe they have well off parents?? But no everyone is assumed living paycheck to paycheck

"Since we are cheapstakes we want to find the one who are without a job right now and are  desperately in need of a job and are most likely to accept our lowballed offer which ultimately allows us to lick our boss's ass and show how we saved them x%."

Immediate joiners insisted coz they fear candidates would shop around for offers. Also this happens when there is an urgent project requirement from client and budget likely to lapse later.

Program Manager

because if you have time, you will go for "offer shopping"

Senior Software Engineer

Do blunder get fired immediately join new company maje hi maje

Software Engineer

Urgent roles. Someone left or workload increased, need someone ASAP 
  
 Seldom I have seen they plan in advance where they can accommodate notice periods.

Consultant

To stop offer shopping and to approach those only who are confident and seriously looking for the job change. Some of the companies even give offer letter only two to three days before the last working day of the candidate. So be prepare accordingly. And also some of the companies are recalling their offer letters. So beware too.

Senior Consultant

Someone accepted offer, got better deal just before few days of joining and didn't show up. HR will be in soup and look for immediate joiners to fill the gap

Hardware Engineer

Hypocrisy is the recruiting company itself have 3 month notice period.

Because that's their maximum operating capacity. Common sense doesn't apply on talent acquisition and HR department.

Security Engineer

This is because companies nowadays are not hiring for the bench. Only if there is a project requirement and none of resources from the existing bench qualified for the role then only they'll search candidates outside the company. If they offer someone who will join 3 months later, the probability is very high that the candidate won't join.

In this market situation, 2+ yoe exp people didn't find a job for months. I have 1.4 yoe in frontend + plus Immediate joiner but still got rejected every time even when I answer all questions. Dont leave even if you have offer many of my friends offer revocked because the found guy with more exp. working in less pay.

Because they can join and start doing the work for the company quickly

Why are recruiters looking for immediate joiners?
I seriously, respectfully, want to understand why is this rule? Even the company you are hiring for has 60 days notice period or even more.

90 Days Notice Period.

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

I am working in Capgemini. I have 2 yoe experience. Wherever i apply either they skip my profile or HR rejects it when she/ he hears of 3 months notice period. Is there any suggestions how to handle this problem.

Why every company needs employees immediate but they have 1-3 months compulsory notice period.

Do Companies wait for 90 day notice period or immediate joining is only preferred by companies?

90 Day notice awaiting

I have been searching for jobs since last few months and initially I used to mention my notice period as 90 days. Recruiters used to treat me like minorities in this country. Then I updated it to 60 days actual still being 90 days. However, I started fetching interview calls and eventually cracked one today. The company wants me to join ASAP with an option to buyout the notice period. However, my current company is stuck to age old 90 day notice period and I don't think there's a buyout option with them.

I do have seen a case of 37 day release but need help in ways of tackling with this 90 day NP.
P.S. Deployed on client side. Have amazing working relationship with the client manager. But don't want to utilise that as I am not sure if it will turn out good or bad. As I have seen things turning hostile once you put down papers.

Any suggestions would be really helpful! Thanks.

90 Day notice period! How to get away?

Please  share if anyone has negotiated notice period in genpact. Is it doable?

Is notice period of 90 days frowned upon? How does the dynamics with the interviewer work?

90 days

Finding direct job opportunities with organizations can be challenging through career sites due to the overwhelming number of listings. It's unclear whether applying on LinkedIn results in direct communication with HR or if it's merely for display. I haven't received any direct calls from companies after applying on LinkedIn. Only we will get the calls from consultancies through naukri, Consultancies often prioritize immediate joiners, which isn't feasible for those with notice periods like 90 or 60 days. Any valid suggestions are highly appreciated.

Why do some companies expect immediate joiners when they have more than one month notice period.
Why do companies have long notice period?

Long Notice periods

Hi Folks
I recently got an offer and the notice period over there is 60 days. In my past companies it was 30 days everywhere. Just wanted to know your opinion.

Is the 60 days notice period too much?

Mine is 90  
 I feel like drowning in Harpic

Data engineer

I am a fresher, and my company has a 3 month notice period. I want to know do normally people have offers in hand before resigning or they find next stint in the notice period. I ask this because I don't imagine companies waiting 3 months for us to join. Do they?
