I have been working for an MNC for last 6 months . I have been assigned post called engineer but even after 6 months there is no training given in particular domain neither the work . So, I’m thinking to move to infosys in which I got selected . My previous company has a bond period of 3 years . Company will not pursue legal suit in case of absconding . Will I have any effect on my job at Infosys . Is it good to mention it in interview ? Please reply

When you have a bond to serve the employer for 3 years since your appointment, it is equally obligatory on his part to provide you with work for which you were appointed. If he simply keeps you idle with no work or any training continuously for a period of 6 months as you've mentioned, that would be a valid reason on your part to quit despite the bond because of the impossibility of performance created by the employer. So, you can formally resign for this reason. Instead, if you abscond, that would be misconduct warranting your dismissal, apart from claiming damages for violating the bond condition abruptly.

I am unable to think that any prudent employer would prefer an employee with a past record of absconding.

Hi,

As suggested by the learned member, there is no point in being an absconder just to fulfill the criteria. In fact, that very word will come to haunt you later in life, including your immediate job prospects, as it just shows that you are not a reliable employee. Go for resignation, mentioning no work in the present job for the past several months and not possible to move forward in such a situation. It is a very valid reason, and try to come out without any issues as much as possible. Do not fall into the trap of seeking a favorable decision and committing wrong, which will be detrimental to your growth.

Thanks and Regards

Dear Colleague,

If I am not wrong, your query is, in the given circumstances of no work assigned or any training given in the past six months, whether you should jump the bond. Perhaps, you have used 'Absconding' unintentionally for jumping the bond.

If my assumptions are correct, then in my view, it would be appropriate for you to resign by giving prescribed notice and citing the reasons as above which are justified reasons to quit, and your jumping the bond may not be treated illegal or unfair.

I am unable to understand which company will pay without any job/training. Many organizations recruit the Trainee, but instead of providing appropriate training, they put them on the job or provide "on-the-job training." There is a chance that you might not have received the desired training or work. It is better to serve notice to the present organization for jumping the bond.

During the interview, you must mention the present job/training and also provide a reason for leaving the current organization.
