Greetings to all...
I am an MBA(HR) 2010 passout ,working in a manufacturing company as an execuitve for last 4 months.I find the job not upto the mark , and would like to resign the same.But my marriage got fixed up suddenly and I will be shifing form the city in a couple of months, so finding an alternative job is not possible. I have 2 more months left for the marriage So,If I resign the job now and remain jobless for next two months will it create a negative impact on my career???? Is there a chance to get regected when I TRY FOR A NEW ONE AFTER 3 MONTHS????? OR should I somehow stick on to the same job(Its really worthless because there is no value addition happening to me and the company is unprofessional aswell).Please guide me to take a proper decision.....

I would agree with Yasmin , as continuity makes you more employable . At the same time, from your post, it seems you have made a decision for yourself. You don’t see any value addition for the two months in the company. On the top you will have to resign in three months time. Considering that it wouldn’t be difficult to explain why you left your job, I guess puts you in a stronger position to put your papers down, moreover you are relocating into a different city post your marriage. But time it rightly, please do keep in mind that 0-6 months are calculated in the same work experience level. Since you have been working for more than 4 months now, continue for some more time to take it towards 6 months and resign thereafter.
Try and gain expertise within your role , no matter how little options you have . You need to explain and justify this role in interviews later on. Keep that in mind and prepare accordingly.
Observe how work is done in other areas of HR. Note the process for managing any escalation and solutions they find. Learn more about the legal and statutory processes. These would add on to your professional experience. Remain non-judgmental about them and absorb every bit of information that you come across. It would make you employable, so make use of your time in office. Wish you all the best!

Instead of resigning you can take leave for your marriage, whether you have leave balance or it goes as LOP never mind. In the mean time you can also search for new jobs, hope this helps....

Hi friend,
If am to be in your position i would put down my resignation immediately (because there is no point in staying with a company which doesn't add any value to your efforts), serve the notice period specified in the appointment letter (Never abscond, thats not the right way to respond - think you have been paid for 4months, being educated people we should know what are our do's and dont's) and by the time you get relieved you will have only 1month left over to get married. In that span you can try getting a job in the city to where you will move after marriage or else enjoy your bachelor life and be happy.
See it only 4months of experience that you have and that too 2010 passout. Even if you try for a job after getting married you can easily convince the HR that as soon you have completed your education your parents wanted you to get married and insisted you to work only if your hubby is willing to. Tell HR that since you got married and even your husband agreed, you have started your job search. Its quiet simple matter.
Good luck to you.

Respected Seniors,
Thank you all for the valuable guidence and advice.From the suggestions I feel that I should somehow continue the job ....!!! And I am so much relaxed to know that it wont be hard to get a new job once i get married :).
But If at all I find it intolerable at any point of time and I resign, can I show this less than 6 months experience in my resume??? or should I start again as a fresher????

Hi,
As i feel that you should show your Exp.. but at the same time you should also be ready to face the Questions with the next companies interview.
you should show a strong reason to leave the past company other wise you cant build trust and get through the interview.
I can only tell you that do not leave the present job and search for other the is not a good option.

Greetings,
I am sure you have your own parameters to the deal breaker and will take a call on it. You should add this experience in your resume. Though there are chances you might be categorised in the level of 0-6 month’s experience. Yet you would be better than a fresher as you are at a lot more oriented level than someone who has never worked in this role. So value yourself and continue learning as far as you can.
Wish you all the best,
