Hello fishes,

I've seen one post in Facebook, one person joined in TCS 3 months back and now HR called and asked about relieving letter of his absconding company where he worked only 2 months and however he didn't mention his experience in resume as well.

My question here I'm also in same situation I worked in one call centre company as part timer so it was irrelevant experience to me and i absconded from that company once I get full time job. Does it trouble after joining?
