you signed a contract. probably not. how ever you can tell them in writing just how disatisfied you are with their performance. If they get you the interview then they get paid. They will probable sue you in court for failure to honor the terms.

Sorry, you're kind of stuck.  There is no time within which you may cancel.  Your acceptance of the contract was effective as soon as you mailed them the signed document.\n\nSorry.

NO!Indeed, it is agaisnt or violating your contract you and him duly signed. Employment contract is a legal paper. He/she should respect your time even you're just an employee. You should communicate with him in a nice and professional way. If you meet both ends, change the contract for adjustment.Be safe!

unhireable might be an internal reference if you were to ever apply for a job with that company again.  Some companies do that and some people do ask in references "would you hire this person again".  Sounds like they are being real jerks about it.  Aren't you glad you are leaving.  Maybe schedule a discussion about it with the personnel office and ask them and bring up your experiences and "employee of the month" thing.  It could be your manager is sabotaging you with the company and personnel isn't aware of it.  Good luck!

first you should check the contract letter what they describe their selves.\neach company has preparation period for 3,6,9 months if you are not fit they have rghits to extend that or terminated that.\nsome company said in contract letter that if you get confirmation and after that you terminated by themselvs they will give you one month time or they will pay you the\n one month salary.\nif you dint get confirmation they have rights to fire at any time without any fee\nbut if you work in abroad they will give the air fare or ticket.

There are a lot of things that can exclude you from joining. Talk to a recruiter. Be open and honest about everything. If you lie or hide the truth, and they find out, you can get kicked out with probably an OTH (Other Than Honorable) discharge.

It would not hurt a thing to call them NOW.  If you do not, you may get thrown in file 10, garbage!  If you do, and they were looking to hire you anyways, then you will be seen as an ambitious and willing person to fill the job.  Remember, if you don't get the job, just do right and when one door closes another opens and is usually a better opportunity.  Good luck!

if you really want the job, then just continue to wait. i'm a recruiter and sometimes things change. you'll be set to hire someone, and then someone from top says that you can't or there needs to be someone from within to take the position. all kinds of internal things could be happening behind the scenes. but if you're willing to deal with it, just be patient.

The Employer can not fire you for looking around... Unless you already have an offer pending from another work place and it is in the same kind of business as your current job. For Example.. If you work for a bank and you are applying for another bank job at a different place it will be conflict of interest and your work place may let you go as soon as they find out that you have an offer and you are nagotiating.. however if they fire you and they do not have proof of this you may apply for Unemployment... \n\nThis has happened to me.. My, new, now employer called for verification of employment at my old job.. the HR from my old job showed up at my office the next business day and gave me my exit interview... Well the new job was still pending and i had no definite answer i applied for unemployment and collected it for 3 weeks until i started the new job..\n\nGood luck..\n\nYou can also search for jobs and then fax or email the resume to the business you are interested in.. This way your resume is NOT online for anyone to look at..\n\nThx\nHope this helps

God some people are just a pain... Good luck sweetie...

no.  Look at your contract, though. Look at all the documents you've signed.\n\nYou might show them to a lawyer.  Even if you signed some sort of exclusive agreement with them, you can get out of it.

First of all, as a recruiter I can tell you that if whatever your problem is, if it can be waived the recruiter will work it.  If it cannot, and it sounds like you have been told something like it is a long shot or not even possible, email the White House is a waste of time.  If you have concerns or feel that all is not being done on your behalf, contact your local congressmen's office.

Don't sign anything. If they give you a write up sheet or something like it. Don't sign it. You have a case for sure. \n\n\nUnfortunately, they can terminate you regardless. However, after wards you have options. After the fact, the situation favors you, it appears to be an overreaction on their part. Legal action or unemployment would probably swing your way, assuming you haven't signed anything that could be perceived as an admission of wrongdoing.\n\nIf they do terminate you, contact: Unemployment, the Better Business Bureau (or your states equivalent), and a lawyer if you'd like.

Sorry to hear that..... legally you have to be with a company for 2 years so if you are getting a redundancy package then your lucky as they have no legal obligation to do so.....  but i would speak to your union rep just to be sure as they can mediate for you.... also start looking for a job now  don't leave it till you have finished there.... good luck

Most companies use headhunters, they use them as an extension of their HR dept to pre-screen applicants so they don't waste a lot of time on in-appropriate resume's. There is a cost of course associated with this service, and many employeer's prefer to pay it by agreeing to rent you from the headhunters for from 3-6 months. Of course the headhunters would prefer the longer term. Let's say for example only that you make $20 an hour. The headhunters will rent you for $30 and hour, put you on W2 (as their employee ... but with no paid benefits) and pocket the difference. For the employeer the benefits are no lump sum out of pocket expense, and they get a nice test drive of your services, if they don't like you or your attitude, they can drop you at any time and get a fresh replacement without incurring any additional cost. This process is not always manditory, if you are in a highly sought after job skill, you can demand regular, full time employment only. There is no difference in your employment status if you start directly or are contract to hire. Both are "at will" and they can terminate you and you can quit at any time without any prior notice. On the direct hires, the employeer pays a finding fee to the headhunters, usually with a 90 day restriction ... that is if you leave before the 90 day period is up, they (the employeers) get their fee back. This is negotiable of course but strictly between the employeer and the headhunter agency. I prefer to work directly with the employeer, but have worked with headunters for many years. Check out Carrerbuilder, they seem to have more direct employeer listings!!! Also, a lot of headhunters scan for the direct listings and try to recruit you for those positions as well. Keep track of who you apply to, that way you can avoid problems of duplicate applications and representatives (headhunters). And of course I will give you the same advice that all Boxers get ... protect yourself at all times !!! Good Luck !!!

sounds like a nice idea- even if by the time they recieve it- they already hired someone else!  Maybe they will keep you in mind next time there is an opening if they dont hire you this time.
