▸ Ask A Recruiter - Insurance

You are currently posting as works at Analyst

A recruiter is pushing for a reference check with my current manager before we’ve even discussed salary or a formal offer. I’m worried about my standing at my current firm if they find out I’m looking. I want to be professional, but I need to protect my current employment until I have a real offer. Is there a way to keep them from contacting people early - especially current managers?

Let them know you are very interested in the opportunity, but you haven’t informed your company/current manager. You’d be happy to provide references to previous managers or peers. Has anyone gotten to a point where the recruiter refuses to move forward without a current manager reference? That would be a huge red flag, and I’d move on.

I’m surprised they’re asking that early. I agree with the other comments. It’s best to communicate to them that you have other reliable reference right now but are not comfortable getting it from your current manager.

There is nothing wrong with you being upfront with the recruiter letting him/her know you do not want your current employer contacted. Recruiters are very familiar with speaking with the current employer only after you have accepted the offer. Note: The offer can be contingent on the results of your current employer's feedback. At least you will not have to be concerned with the contact until you have accepted the new position.
Good luck!

Can I move to Florida the month my bonus hits and not pay any NY State tax on it? Or would I just declare that 1/12 of the year I was in Florida and get the pro-rated refund from NYS on my overall Pay

If in your employee handbook states that if you leave within the first year of your green card, you need to pay back all the expenses, but when the green card was initiated, I did not sign anything, can they hold me to it and ask me to pay?

How does your agency use data? Is it only used for tracking and reporting? Is it used for setting strategy and informing creative? For business consulting? Thanks!
