Hi,
I was working with the small start up company between 2016 to 2020, initially for 2 years I was getting regular salary but later my salary was irregular and sometime there was no salary, that company told me that they are facing some financial problem and will credit pending salary.. so to manage my expenses I have also done freelancing work for 7 months with their permission but now I am selected in the MNC and they are considering it dual employment during background check, I told them because they mentioned in the mail that dual employment past should be disclosed. My first question that freelancing was not on the payroll of other company, I was not getting pf only getting money on hourly basis so why they are considering it as dual employment and also services of both companies were also different. How should convince my present company ?

In this situation, it's crucial to transparently communicate the details to your new employer. Here's a practical approach to address this issue:
1. Document Everything: Gather proof of your freelance work agreement with the startup, clearly showing it was not formal employment but a freelance arrangement.
2. Explain the Circumstances: Detail the financial challenges the startup faced, leading to irregular payments and the need for freelancing to sustain yourself.
3. Highlight Differences: Emphasize the distinctions between your roles at the startup and the freelance work, showcasing they were separate engagements with no overlap.
4. Provide References: Offer references from the startup or clients you freelanced for, supporting your explanation of the dual roles.
5. Seek HR Assistance: If possible, involve HR in the discussion to clarify the nature of your freelance work and address any concerns during the background check.
6. Express Commitment: Reassure your new employer of your commitment to the role and your integrity in disclosing all relevant information.
By proactively addressing these points and demonstrating your honesty and professionalism, you can mitigate any concerns your new employer may have regarding the dual employment situation.
