Hi All,
I have 4 years of experience in the IT sector. Recently, a company offered me a job, and based on that, I resigned from my previous employer. My new company keeps asking for my last working day to finalize my joining date.
When I was released from my previous company, they assured me that they would onboard me within a day or two. However, they kept delaying, wasting my whole month. Just now, their HR mentioned that someone would call me to discuss travel arrangements, but then their director informed me that they have no position for me.
It is extremely unethical to render me jobless and then inform me that there is no role available. I am at a loss for what to do in this situation. Please provide guidance.

Dear Friend,
Unfortunately, this is an example of poor HR practice. If you have left your previous company on good terms, you can discuss it there with your reporting manager and HR department. If the policy allows for it or they make an exception for you, then that's great.
Eventually, lodge an FIR against the personnel and the company with all the supporting documents. If something is mentioned in your offer letter such as, "Nothing should be considered final until the receipt of the appointment letter," then you can't do anything about it.
All good wishes!

Dear Sir, Many thanks for your reply. No nothing as such is mentioned in their call letter. So should I report this to Labour Court or a Civil Court. Thanks, Bhuvan

Dear Friend,
You need to play diplomatically! I would recommend refraining from taking legal action against them, as it will consume too much of your time and money. Instead, report it to the local media, and they will take care of the rest. At least in the future, they will not exploit any other innocent individuals.
Look for other opportunities, be honest, and maintain your stance on what happened with the new company. You can always bounce back. Cheers!

Hi,
You have been rightly advised to refrain from legal action. Going to the labor court or any other authority will be a waste of time and resources. You have two options:
1. To approach the employer and explain your circumstances (without putting the blame on anyone) and request a suitable appointment considering your background.
OR
2. To go back to your previous employer, explain the circumstances that led you to resign, and request a reconsideration of your case. If your conduct and work were good, the employer might consider your case on sympathetic grounds.
You have to be very diplomatic in your approach and try to get back on the saddle. Don't waste your time and energy filing complaints or approaching any authority. No one would believe you. Resigning from a job without an appointment letter is not a wise thing to do.
Wishing you all the best,
