I started a new job mid last month, but KPMG just got back to me nearly two months after an initial phone interview.

My current job is as a Senior Business Analyst at a boutique firm specializing in FinTech. A little boring if I’m being honest, but salary is 100k.

According to Glassdoor, the salary for this position at KPMG would be ~115k. Senior Associate for Cloud.

How terrible would I be if I ended up leaving my current job after two months? Can anyone actually stomach this?

Anybody filed for unemployment with reason- terminated for performance. What was the procedure like? Do they interview you? I could have easily provided reason as laid off, but, didn’t want to give false info as the reason in my termination was performance, according to my termination letter. Questions that could be asked are: why were you terminated, were you given warning, when were you given warning , how long have you been performing this job, have you don’t this kind of job before.
