Hi,
I worked for a company for 8 months and suffered from jaundice. As per the doctor's prescription, I was asked for 2 months of bed rest. After 2 months, my company refused to let me in, and since I was in a 2-year probation period, they didn't provide a relieving letter. Now, I am doing MBA from one of the best colleges in India, and seniors are saying that the company will not let me sit for campus placement due to the absence of a relieving letter. One more thing, I also worked for a family friend after leaving my previous company. If I provide details of that company (like a relieving letter and all), will it suffice, or will they still ask to submit the relieving letter of my first employer?

Dear Ms. Pete Mitchell123,
With the exception of joining as an experienced candidate or fresher, all depends on you. Obviously, in case you do not possess a relieving/experience certificate, your tenure for those 8 months would not be pertinent.
How many months have you worked for your friend? If it is for a shorter span, I'd suggest you to take a recommendation letter (on the letterhead) from the last employer along with the relieving letter, as a "Recommendation Letter" always speaks about your essential skills and the position worked for. This gives the Hiring Manager dexterous/handy information about you. Certainly, your resume speaks for itself—if you provide information about your previous employer, you may need to explain the reason for your abrupt departure (No employer demands certificates unless the resume has such loose ends).
People speak apathetically; all you need to do is to check the strengths you have and present yourself well during the interviews. Being with a positive mindset always creates yield.
All the Best!

Well in addition to response by Sharmila ji, first I would like to say that the actions taken by your employer was obvious because you never informed them about your illness. How they can get the reality of your sickness and that Doctor has advised you to take rest of two months until you inform them by anyhow. Bed rest does not mean you cannot make a phone call and send an email to your employer. Now you say what you did.
Second, can you please let us know who has provided this probationary job option to you? And you said, “Now you are doing MBA” does it mean you enrolled yourself for MBA after this working period (Probationary job) or what?
See, if you were working in past and have enrolled and started your study later this period f working, there is no need to prove this past employment until asked by your University with whatever benefits /options that student can expect. Therefore, you do not need to worry about losing your position for campus recruitment or listen your seniors.
Third, if you are talking about your senior collage mates by addressing SENIORS as quoted above, I believe you must not take them seriously but need to consult your any mentor/collage faculty (the one whom you can talk) or your any collage authority in this regard. But certainly must not take your collage mates seriously by their believing.
Now about relieving latter if asked, it is you who knows that you have worked for a Family friend not University/Collage. You just have to prove that you were employed not that your employer was a family friend or whatever, so in this case your relieving latter certainly be sufficient but what value your campus recruiter would give this company of your Family friend where you have worked, is totally gonna depends on them. We cant actually say anything in this regard.
