the job must have sucked too much for you to resign w/o an offer elsewhere

I hate my previous job too much, hence I left. But also combined the fact that I had to put in a 3 month notice. Not much companies would wait for you for 3 months or buy you out as well.

The only time I did this was when I was working with a company which had 3 months notice for resignation. Got a job one and a half months after tendering.

If your job has a long notice period then it might be the only way. Hardly anyone willing to wait or buy out for 3 months.
*
Ya wei. The notice period is the reason why I can't secure some jobs too. Too long. Not all companies willing to buy out especially with the current economy condition where they need to keep cost low.


QUOTE(kitzai @ Jan 15 2019, 10:02 AM)
Confirm 3 years, then change to amg spec.

I buy a class not because it's cheap but the tech and I like hot hatch lor
*
No, A-class is never a cheap car to begin with. Any cars above 200k isn't cheap.

QUOTE(peterG @ Jan 15 2019, 10:36 AM)
I will resign after take bonus end of this month.

- too comfort in company, but no increment for 2 years already
- go holiday 2 week then only start find job
- less commitment,  1 car and rental only

wish me luck  cry.gif

All the best. Syukur got bonus.
I sudah 3 years no bonus despite helping company make 600k GP on November.

QUOTE(lucifah @ Jan 15 2019, 10:54 AM)
then u might as well wait for the VSS offer to come

at least u resign get some compensation

Small SME only, where got VSS and all... laugh.gif
Bosses will just keep on piling up your responsibilities to achieve 2 possible outcome:

1. choose to stay and continue doing all the jobs given but pay peanut (essentially 3 person job but 1 person pay)
2. choose to leave when it reaches the tipping point of "I can't take it anymore".

Right now I'm somewhere between those 2 scenarios. 1.5. laugh.gif

I've seen people resigning without a new job because too busy with current job.
Too much work to do.
No time to go for interviews.

But took many months to look for new job.

That's why it is up to you if you are willing to take the risk or not to quit your job without any job because of your 3 months notice period. If you are confident enough with your resume and work experiences, then maybelah. Even for me who has 6 years of working experience working in call centres also was jobless for 7 months even when I apply for call centre jobs. Usually it is the interviewer don't know how to interview or the company is being anal while choosing the candidates.

If u already resigned and without a job, do consider doing mlm with me.

There are lots of professional who are doing it now and they have good incomes, better than their work.

Nowadays mlm is not like it used to be.

MLM need to find people to willing to register and join under you. And the people under you have to willing to find new people and also to sell stuffs. Not that easy

How long is your notice period? If it’s anything more than 2 months by all means tender first. Then keep going for interviews. I was stuck for almost 2 years trying to land a job when I had 3 months notice and got 3 offers when I tendered first and had 1 month plus notice left.

Unless you lazy or working in really niche industry or role. Impossible to not land anything in that 3 months.

If not mistaken is 3 months, but I think there's a clause that the notice period will be 6 months when I'm employed more than 3 years in this company. Need to check back offer letter first. lol

Better check, if 6 months then you really can wait until cows fly before you get an offer leh.
