Thanks for immigrationboards, I was able to get my HSMP and land here in UK. I was searching job and got a job from an indian based company with UK office. They have taken me as HSMP contract employee.. As I did not have much knowledge on the job market I took the offer immediately - but now is the problem.. I signed the offer of employement which state, "you agree to work with XYZ company for a period of atleast 12 months with 1 month notice period" - its been only 2 weeks into this company and they have deputed me in a remote place for their client project - I am not feeling comfortable with the company and I am getting good offers - now this is my question -
1. Do I have to serve the entire 12 month period and then only put the notice period?
2. If I get another offer, can I put the notice period and leave immediately?
3. What should I say for the next company in case I had to come immediately, which I cannot do with the 1 month notice period?
Please help.
Two weeks is little time to judge any job. And I assume that, it would have there in their contract , about client locations.tkpvijay wrote: its been only 2 weeks into this company and they have deputed me in a remote place for their client project - I am not feeling comfortable with the company
If this is the reason , and you want to get out, then you should wait till this contract is over. As told earlier, contract is contract, you agreed to something. Don't tell that, you haven't noticed it when you signed cotract.and I am getting good offers
Everybody in this world will wait for atleast 1 month. If not, I would not prefer to join their.3. What should I say for the next company in case I had to come immediately, which I cannot do with the 1 month notice period?
Nobody could tell you about this. This is totally depend on what you have agreed with your employer. And how you are going to convince your manager to leave you?tkpvijay wrote: but my question is here only, I am ready to serve notice period ( as mentioned in contract document) for 1 month, but what if I get another good offer within 12 months? - do I have to serve the 12 month period with the company, even if I accept to give a notice period of 1 month?
A contract works both ways. That is, if the employer breaches it, by sending you full-time to the client's location, that is not in accordance with the wording and you would be justified in ending the arrangement early.the contract says I will be working based out of their london office and might be asked to go to short term to client locations.. but I dont know whether I would be struck up here in the client location for the entire term..thats why a bit apprehensive in hurrying to make a decision now as it will be very late to tell afterwards...

As I am new to this contract concept it was my mistake to have not taken notice of the wordings in the contract.
yes, 2 weeks is a little less time to decide on the contract, but my situation here is not looking good, thats why looking out to get off so early..
I am into Information Technology stream..
yes, as you guys say, a contract is a contract and notice period has to be respected, so, the only way out seems to be discussing with the manager and serving the notice period and trying to leave out in good will..
but my question is here only, I am ready to serve notice period ( as mentioned in contract document) for 1 month, but what if I get another good offer within 12 months? - do I have to serve the 12 month period with the company, even if I accept to give a notice period of 1 month?
Thank you again guys.. for explaining the consequences.. it was really a good information..
