Dear Respected Sirs,
Please suggest to me how to keep my career on the right path.
My notice period in the current organization started on Nov 17, 2014, which is 90 days. However, on Oct 12th, I submitted my resignation to my current organization, stating that I am going for higher studies. The HR of the current company replied that my cessation with the company is not completed without fulfilling the notice period. Fortunately, I received a call from my dream company on Oct 16th and was selected by the MNC company. During the interview, I clearly mentioned to the Regional HR that I will not receive a relieving letter from my current company without serving the notice period. He assured me that he would resolve this issue and repeated this statement twice. They kept me waiting for one month to release the offer letter.
Due to personal reasons, I did not respond to my current company for 17 days. However, I was unaware of the importance of a relieving letter from the company. One day, I met a friend experienced in the corporate field who emphasized the significance of obtaining a relieving letter to avoid any career implications. Realizing the importance, I went back to the HR of my current company and requested to serve the notice period. After submitting the necessary proofs regarding my higher studies, the HR finally agreed to let me serve my notice period starting from Nov 16, 2014.
Between Oct 23, 2014, and Nov 15, 2014, I contacted the MNC HR multiple times to clarify the process of obtaining the relieving letter. Each time, he promised to get back to me but ended the call without resolving the issue.
After 35 days from the interview date, today on Nov 18, 2014, I received an offer letter stating that I need to join by Nov 25th, 2014, or the offer will be withdrawn. I explained to the Regional HR of the MNC that I am in my notice period and cannot join by Nov 25th. He advised me to send a mail to my current company stating that I am going out of the country and unable to serve the notice period, proposing to settle the matter immediately by paying the required amount or deducting it from the settlement.
When I called him later in the evening, I reiterated that I am in the notice period, and the current company will not issue a relieving letter without completing the notice period. I am fully confused after hearing this. Despite many requests to the HR of my current company, I have agreed to serve the notice period, but the MNC insists on the importance of the relieving letter.
Please advise me on what to do as I am eagerly awaiting your valuable suggestion. My heart is not willing to miss this opportunity with my dream company. Kindly suggest how to convince the Regional HR of the MNC to wait until the completion of the notice period as he is not considering my request to wait.
Thank you for your assistance.

Prakash, your query is so long-winded, but net/net, you are looking to quit your current firm, get the relieving letter, and join the dream firm, right? The relieving letter is imperative for your new employer? Well, in this case, I recommend you coax your new employer to hire you as a consultant until the time you get a relieving letter from your existing/past employer or request them to waive the relieving letter and treat your case as special circumstances.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for the valuable suggestion. I have informed the Regional HR of my dream MNC company. He replied that he needs to discuss with the Head HR of the company, and then he will get back to me.
One of the consultancy members who provided me this opportunity called me today, and the conversation went as follows:
He asked me if there is a possibility of bringing you into the company under one condition. If I say yes, then I will try to convince the Regional HR of my dream company. Here is the condition: "Forget your 3 years of total experience at your previous company and join with us as a fresher, then there will not be a problem."
What should I say to him regarding this? Please guide me if this is suitable advice for my career path.
I then posed a few questions to him:
1. Will the MNC remove me at any point without giving any notice? He replied that the company will only remove you if your performance is poor.
2. Will there be any package deduction? Initially, he said there would be no package deduction, but later mentioned that he would get back to me on this.
Regards,
Prakash

Dear Prakash,
I understand your anxiety. However, your case has become complicated, making it difficult to suggest the best solution for you. The person who will be affected is YOU, regardless of the solution. You need to carefully evaluate the pros and cons of all the options available currently and consider the implications of your chosen decision in the near future. While obtaining a relieving order may seem like the ideal solution, it has become practically unavailable without the consent of your current employer. Since you have already expressed interest in the new company, if the compensation package is not significantly reduced, it may be a more appealing choice for you.
Even though starting afresh as a newcomer may seem daunting, your performance can make up for it. There is a possibility to progress quickly if you demonstrate exemplary performance. It is important to note that you have not disclosed the length of your notice period. Additionally, there is no mention of whether a buyout solution is being considered or if it would be accepted. In light of these circumstances, the decision ultimately rests with you, considering all the permutations, combinations, and alternatives available at present.
Wishing you all the best.
