I have joined a private limited company on 01.09.10, but the working pattern here is proprietorship in toto. I have around 22 years of experience, which includes 12 years in Mahindra & Mahindra and 5 years in Indorama Group. Both of these companies, along with my other previous companies, have a professional working pattern and are at a corporate level. However, here the scene is very different. It's only the boss's words that are to be followed; his ego gets hurt if we give some good innovative suggestions or sensible opinions. He is also not a good listener, which often irritates me. I feel that I have nothing to learn here and have no good exposure. I thought maybe as this is my new job, I am not able to adjust myself here, but the same is the story for the old employees too. They are here only because of the low work burden, flexibility of time, and good salary. However, I feel that if I continue in this environment, I may lose my work efficiency and become lethargic.

Now, I have received an interview call from a public limited company on 05.10.10, Tuesday (tomorrow). My question is, what shall be my answer to their question - "Why do you want to shift your job so fast?" Kindly reply to this at the earliest so that I am well prepared with the appropriate response without causing any adversity to my current employer.

Sincere regards,

Please review the revised text below:

Please assess the financial capability of the New Company if you are prepared to negotiate regarding salary (if your performance is good in the interview). If you are not seeking a salary increase, you can straightforwardly express that you are dissatisfied with the current atmosphere/culture and seek a change for genuine "Work Satisfaction."

Be bold and courageous. I am confident that it will assist you in securing a better company.

Dear Archana,

I would strongly recommend that you speak with transparency. Please remember that the interviewer is an experienced person and will sum you up in no time before the interview session is over!

You moved into a small organization after having worked for several large ones, and it would be obvious why you want to return to the sort of organizational atmosphere that you have been used to. Every interviewer would know that the environment that surrounds you in your work area is directly related to your efficiency levels.

Hence, I would recommend that you don't shy away from speaking your mind. Your candidness will get you the job.

Best of luck,

Hi Archana, I can understand your situation and appreciate that you are really concerned about your skills and knowledge, and want to switch your job because of it while getting a good salary package there, I guess. Now, you are facing the kind of problem where employers are asking you the reasons for changing jobs. However, as you have mentioned that you have long experience in your field of work and have spent a long time with an organization too, I don't think this question can bother you. But if the employers are asking this, then let them know that you have spent a long time with the organization and now you are looking for good exposure and better opportunities, as you are not satisfied so far.

Tell them honestly what you feel now and let them discover your efficiencies, experience, and your attitude, and more. I'm sure you can do it and will not disappoint your recruiters.

I would say that first, learn about the prospective company's current and future business scope well and try to ascertain a correlation between your skills, robust experience in your field, and the company's business needs. Your discussion should revolve around the recent achievements of the prospective employer and their future plans, emphasizing how your skills would definitely benefit them. Avoid mentioning your current manager, as this may not be well-received if your reporting manager is part of the interview panel. Instead, mention that your RM is supportive and always suggests new approaches to problems. Express a preference for a more process-oriented company, highlighting that being a listed company makes it a preferred choice for you. Let me consider this further and write back to you if possible.

Regards,

Anil Pereira.

Hi,

Although I am late to reply to your question, but still, I would say that the situation you are talking about is enough to teach you, but you don't want to read this chapter from the book called 'Life'.

Sorry to be blunt, but such a situation might pop up again in any other firm in the future.

After noticing your work experience, I don't see myself giving you any tips. But yes, if you hold the book very close to your eyes, you would not be able to read; in that way, I can comment.

Anyway, whatever you decide, have fun and enjoy!

Best Wishes
