I joined Company 'A' around 5 months ago and have been on the bench since the day I joined. After 2 months, I received another offer from a reputable software company, 'B'. However, I rejected the offer one day before the joining date with Company 'B', thinking that I would get good work in my present company, 'A'. Unfortunately, I was wrong. I spoke to the recruiter of Company 'B' to see if they could reconsider me for the position if it was still available. Unfortunately, the requirement had already been closed.
Subsequently, I received another offer from Company 'C', but I am a little hesitant to join that company. Nonetheless, I have made up my mind to join Company 'C'.
Questions About Resignation and Relieving Letter
If I resign 5 days before my joining date, which has a notice period of 2 months (I am presently employed with Company 'A'), can I obtain the relieving letter from Company 'A'?
Even if I continue my job search after joining Company 'C', is it essential to have a relieving letter from Company 'A'? Should I disclose my employment at Company 'A' to the recruiter if I continue my job search? Will Company 'B' consider my candidacy for future openings with them?
Please reply.

If you serve the notice period, then of course you will get all letters. Yes, Company B will consider your experience. Don't hide. You haven't done anything wrong.
Update your CV correctly and start the search, serve the notice period as per policy, and collect your letters accordingly. All the best.

"Can I get the relieving letter from Company 'A' if I resign 5 days before my joining?" This point makes no sense. Logically, one cannot get a relieving letter from the company if you resign before joining.

Actually my point was Can I get relieving letter 5 days before joining the new company 'C' only for future reference, although my Company 'C' employer doesnt knows anything about Company 'A'.

Also why I am asking for short notice period is because of the reason that I am on Bench. Serving 2 months of notice period while on bench doesn’t makes any sense.

You will get the relieving letter on the last day of working or after that. Logically, no one will give you a relieving letter, but yes, you can have your resignation acceptance from the current company.
Hope this is clear to you.

As per my knowledge, you have to work for at least 6 months in a company to complete all the exit formalities. Therefore, an experience of only 2 months is not typically considered acceptable in the industry. Additionally, from an HR perspective, HR professionals might perceive you as a job hopper who is unable to stay committed to one company.

I am willing to continue my employment with my current company 'A', but it becomes challenging if I am on the bench. If a company expects long-term commitment from its employees, the employees also anticipate a reciprocal long-term commitment from the employer.

Thats incorrect. Exit formalities are exit formalities - not dependent on timeline. If an employee works a day and then quits, exit formalities apply.

Don't have any probation or bond, but there's a contract regarding a notice period of 3 months. I signed it and I agree with that. But can't the company relieve me without serving the notice period? It's of no use for them and for me as well. I think it's their loss as they are paying me even when I'm on the bench, for which I am thankful to them.

If you want to continue with Company A, I suggest you go and talk to your HR directly. They may be able to tell you the probable tenure of being on the bench. If that doesn't work, please write an email to the department head, marking CC to HR, stating your concern: "I'm eager to take up responsibility in the company but unable to understand the way to get it, please help."
All the best! Hope this will work!
