I have 3 years and 4 months of experience in a small-scale company, and I have been working in a contract hire position in one MNC for the last 8 months. However, I have received an offer from another MNC for a permanent position. I have sent the resignation email to my current organization, but they are insisting that I serve a 90-day notice period. The new MNC requires me to join within 30 days for the permanent position. If I do not serve the 90-day notice period, my current organization will not provide me with any experience or relieving forms.
I have explained the situation to HR. My new company is willing to hire me without considering the 8 months of experience. I have the offer letter, payslips, and PF statements for reference. However, the new company will only consider my 3 years and 4 months of experience. I am concerned about how this might impact my future career if I do not receive an experience and relieving letter due to absconding.

Certainly, abscondence is a grave misconduct that can culminate in dismissal. It is a sign of non-dependability of the individual for any future employment. However, when a situation is created by the employer himself by refusing to allow the resigning employee to exercise the buyout option of the notice period strictly according to his convenience, the employee can get himself relieved by paying the notice salary.
Since the present and prospective employers happen to be MNCs, it is advisable to make the poster's exit formal, duly complying with the notice conditions, though the latter does not insist on the same because they do not consider the experience of 8 months of service with the former. The poster may pay the salary for the unserved notice period under the buyout option and get himself relieved if the same is also likely to be refused. Normally, most HR people will not take any initiative or lead in situations of personal difficulties of employees switching jobs. It is better to try to seek an audience with the unit head and convince him politely. Always, the career graph should be without a break as far as possible.
