One more question from my side,
I quit my job in July 2008 in one of the MNCs. The reason was mine and my boss's relation. Today, I agree that I was wrong on most fronts and angrily took the decision to quit. But now, I want to get back to that company. However, whenever I send my CV, it goes to my ex-manager (at least I think so), and he rejects it. Not sure if this is exactly what is happening, but even my friends from the same company say so. Now, I want to write him a sorry note and request him to call me back. How should I write it? Interviews in that company are scheduled on the 23rd of this month.
To anyone reading this, please take it as an SOS and suggest something. Thank you.

Hi, You should be having your Boss mail id with you. So write directly to him expressing your apology with your CV attached.

It seems that now you are thinking negatively. These are self-excuses. No need to feel bad. Go ahead and contact your ex-manager. Tell them that you realized the erroneous part and assure them that you will improve ASAP. I am sure if you do so, they will forget the past. Anyway, a complete professional will not analyze you based on your past. So go ahead... Best of luck.

Dear Sach,
While I appreciate your honesty in admitting that you are at fault, in my opinion, it may not be wise for you to get back into the organization, especially when your ex-boss is still around. You will find it extremely difficult to manage situations after you join. You are the best judge of the situation.

Hi,
Any employee has to think before leaving is:
1. The organization is the first thing that will remain forever if it prospers.
2. Your treatment from the organization with respect to CTC, designation, comfort with the job, work culture, and thereafter the treatment from your immediate superior.
3. The decision to resign from the job has to be taken based on the above 2 points.
4. Once a decision is made, one must adhere to it and should not rethink that decision.
My advice: Try to find a job in another region of the same company, another company with a similar job, or a higher job profile than your current one.
All the very best for your future.

Hi,
Just visit your company, meet your colleagues over there, and also meet your boss. Say hi to your boss, and if you get a chance, admit your mistake and apologize. If your boss forgives you, he will ask; otherwise, forget about joining the company. This is a valuable experience from which you can learn and grow in the industry. All the best.

Hi sach8382 <link updated to site home> ,
If you will take my advice and experience then I would suggest you to leave this topic, because may be you are feeling that you had a guilty of misconduct that time but your boss’s mind won’t accept this.
I faced the same situation in my previous to previous org. I had not made any rude or unethical behavior to my boss but still he is not in favour to reconsider my candidature in his company. And I know there is no specific reasons behind it accept his bossy nature.
Rest decision is yours.
Best of luck for your future.

Chill, man. There's nothing permanent but change. Accept it and move ahead. You have lost the respect and importance you had prior to your hasty decision. Call it off and look for better prospects. Staring expectantly at the rearview mirror for too long will end up in further disaster.

I completely agree with what one says. You should not go back to your company; it's very difficult for you to manage the situation, and it's very embarrassing for you to face him again and again. Anyways, think about your decision and do what your heart says.

Dear,
My personal advice would be the same as that of all others. If you are considering rejoining your previous organization due to the work environment, growth opportunities, friendly colleagues, or any other reason, please bear in mind that things may not be the same when you return. It could be challenging to readjust and let go of any past issues. I recommend exploring opportunities at other companies. With a positive attitude, you may discover a new company and work environment that align with your preferences.
Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Hi,
As per the norms of professionalism, it is very simple to approach your boss, say sorry, and request to rejoin. However, in practice, it is tough to do so, and it will be challenging to survive in the company.
Therefore, my friend, in my opinion, you should search for a job in another company. If you have talent, you will be recognized. So, don't worry and give it your best.
Thank you.

I am in the same situation. I was working with one of the top IT MNCs until February 2010. I quit the organization in haste, and that too without any job. At that time, I was in a totally frustrated mood because of many reasons. It became even more disastrous when I had to look for a new job. People had many questions, and I was jobless for 4 months. Now, I am working with a small organization that is not really to my liking. I have realized my mistakes and am hopeful for the future. However, I would definitely not choose to go back to the same organization.

Hi buddy,
Never go back to your old company. No need to apologize, but try to maintain a good relationship with him from now on. It won't be as good and supportive as you think, even if he offers you the job. Look for opportunities elsewhere; after all, it's just a learning process that you have already experienced and learned from. These experiences will propel you to great heights in a new company. When it comes to friends and colleagues, you will also get along well in the new organization. So, rock on... Keep going.

See dear, the same happened with me, but I thought it's a part of life. Ups and downs are common. I started with consultancy. I have joined an HR consultancy, and I am polishing myself with knowledge, but I won't go back to my previous company. I am looking ahead.

Going back to the same organization is the most stupid thing... because whenever one person is leaving on his own or because of some contradictory reason, your ex-manager would have blamed you in your absence numerous times (this happens on many occasions in many offices). There would have been a wrong impression built up by your ex-manager. Thus, your second visit will not be viewed in good taste.

Dear Friend,
I know some people do take emotional decisions such as yours. First thing, I appreciate your attitude, i.e., realizing your mistake and admitting it at the first instance; secondly, making an effort to correct it. This is exactly where one's improvement starts.
You can try to collect his mobile number and talk to him. Otherwise, you can even write to him if you have his email address.
However, joining the same organization and working under him is not advisable. Some people don't easily forget the past. It requires strenuous effort to make them understand what really went wrong. I only tell you to be a good friend of your ex-boss; it may so happen that he might join your company again as your boss, and you would not know.
There is nothing to lose in this exercise, and at least you will have satisfaction in reviving a sour relationship.

Dear Mr. Krishna,
I understand your situation. You have made the same error as your friend did.
In life, avoid making emotional decisions. Decisions should always be based on data. As HR professionals, we must have a high degree of endurance.
Lesson No.1: Do not confront your peers, subordinates, or colleagues.
Lesson No. 2: Do not quit your job unless you have a job offer in hand.
Lesson No. 3: Do not remain idle while seeking a job. Consider taking a computer course or similar.
When you are unemployed, during any interview, you may be asked about your "hasty quitting." Even if you provide a satisfactory explanation, you may have to settle for a lower salary than you deserve and accept a job due to your jobless situation, as in your case.
However, do not lose hope. Explore the new opportunities your current job can offer. Show sincerity and loyalty to your job. Your positive attitude towards your work will eventually lead you to a job you desire, if not immediately, then in the future.
Best of luck!

I was working in Accurate Transformers Ltd. in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. They gave me an offer letter but not an appointment letter. After two months of joining, all of a sudden, they told me to quit the company due to some minor reason. They also withheld my salary. After three months, they are still not ready to release my salary. I have not resigned yet, but the Deputy General Manager challenged me, saying that I can't do anything because they did not provide me with an appointment letter. Now, what should I do? Please suggest to me. I have come to know that they are not submitting employees' PF and ESI properly.

These are all unethical practices followed in many companies. If you are not sure about anyone's candidature, why offer him in the first place? Anyways, you don't have trust. There are no stringent laws in India through which employees can actually raise their voice, because of which employers are taking advantage. This happened to one of my friends in his previous company. But fortunately, he got his relieving letter and salary as well.

Mr. Rajendra Sangeet,
I understand that you had been issued an offer letter. However, there was no appointment letter issued to you, right? Now, you tell me:
1) Did you get your previous month's salary? Or is the entire 3 months' salary being held?
2) If yes, how was that paid, through bank or by voucher?
3) Was there any payslip issued to you for the previous month?
4) How did you mark your attendance on those days?
Please clarify these points. I shall suggest how you can get your money.

Hi Everyone,
I have a similar story. I joined an MNC as a fresher (I was recruited there through campus). They didn't tell me the profile beforehand, and when I joined the company, I was put into a testing profile which I didn't like. I had other offers, so I quit this company in 2 months and joined company B as a developer. I have been working in B for 1 and a half years and am now thinking of rejoining the previous company as a developer. When I sent in my resignation, they offered me a development job, but I had already accepted a job in B, so I moved forward with it.
Now, is it a good idea to speak with my previous manager to reconsider me for the job? Will it have any negative impacts on me?
