I have a question in regards to a job I may be offered, and I need some help.? |
I'm in the Nat'l Guard and I just found out today that I will be leaving for training for 5 1/2 months beginning March 23rd. Well, about a month ago I applied for a job with the Veteran's Administration and went to an interview about a week ago. Everything seems fine with that, and they are currently checking my references and background. I'm assuming that I will be offered the job, and I'll find out in about 2 weeks. If I do get the job, I won't be able to start for about another week (you can only start federal jobs at the beginning of the pay period). So, as this whole thing drags out, I would be looking at starting maybe the end of Feb, beginning of March. This is really close to my training date of March 23rd. My ? is this: Should I let them know that I have training coming up and basically kill my chances for employment, or do I follow through and take advantage of the situation and get hired on, then tell them, when they are legally obligated to let me leave. I wouldn't tell until after I got the job. It's better to tell them now, that way you don't burn any bridges. You may want to go back to work with them someday. Honesty is the best policy. Best of luck to you |
