Hello, I recently joined TCS. During the BGC process, my previous company provided some negative feedback because I left the company without serving the notice period. Currently, TCS requires a full and final settlement email with positive remarks. However, it is not feasible at the moment. What steps can I take in this situation?

Dear friend,
Any formal employment has its own set of rules right from the stage of application for the job to its termination. When a notice period for resignation is prescribed, you cannot simply send your resignation by any means and walk out of the job to join another one. Unless you are formally relieved by your previous employer after accepting your resignation, you are deemed to be in service but absconding. As such, your joining another job would be treated as dual employment by both employers, and eventually, you will lose both jobs.
It is better to approach your previous employer, apologize unconditionally, remit the notice salary if insisted, and obtain the proper documents of your exit.

Thank you for your reply. However, my previous company has already given me a release letter and last month's salary as well. They released me with the proper format for the background check process but unfortunately provided a negative response. What can I do in this situation? My previous company has informed me that they will not be issuing any further documents.

The response of an ex-employer in a BGV process need not necessarily be taken as sacrosanct by the new/prospective employer. Particularly, the allegation of jumping notice period becomes irrelevant when the ex-employee was formally relieved of his position just with a plain relieving letter without mentioning anything about it. But it depends on how the new employer takes such a negative feedback.
