Curious how people who exit and then quickly realize the exit was incorrect, apply to their next move. Do you include the new employer on resume even though it’s for 3-6 months, or don’t include on resume?

If you don’t include it don’t you have to show a gap? I think demonstrating that you’re employed would give you more leverage than letting them assume you got fired.

What’s your concern here?

What?

It's not uncommon. Just make up a plausible story.

Unless you are really junior (in this case just say went travelling to discover more about myself) no one gives a care about a gap less than 9-12 months.

An excellent, skilled person can easily support themselves for that time on savings (not everyone of course depends on situation) so unless you have regular gaps no one will care - you are entitled to downtime and time to experiment on hobbies or be with family or just try a new direction that you decide isn't for you

TCS Hr revised my ctc to 27.5lpa from 24lpa for C3A band & shared ctc break up. I negotiated asking him to revise the fixed comp to 26lpa & JB. He said that he would try for fixed comp of 26lpa but no JB. Later he came back saying he can't get an approval for 28lpa & asking me if I'm okay with 24lpa & he would try to get 24lpa also if possible. Is he trying to get the ctc down or does he can't get approval? How do I get him to give the 27.5lpa break up offer? YOE:9y6m Role:Infra ManagerTata Cons

Hello 🦈s,

Role: SAP ABAP
Current: 8 LPA

I am having offer from LTI for 10.5 Fixed & 1

I have also cleared PwC India interview & HR has told me that they can give me 10.5 as Fixed (Before 12 offer). I have not yet received the offer letter.

Now my question is will PwC consider this offer for the re-negotiation? Or will they not release the offer letter itself?

Also what should be my ask for a SAP ABAP Developer with experience of 3.3 Years?

Thanks in Advance 🙏

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.
