Avoid Getting Fired From Your Old Job While looking for new one

How To Avoid Getting Fired From Your Old Job While Looking For a New One

Even if you hate your job, it is best not to quit while you’re still employed. Finding a new job while you’re still employed at your old job is a great way to go from paycheck to paycheck without missing a beat.

If you quit your old job before you’ve found a new one, it could take you weeks or months to find a new job, and this could put you in a financial strain. If you apply for a job while you’re still employed, prospective employers are much more likely to hire you than they would if you were unemployed.

At the same time, there are a number of problems with looking for a job while you are still employed. You never want to let your boss know that you are looking for work. If they find out, they may begin looking for someone to replace you immediately. If they find someone before you’ve found a new job, you could end up being fired. There are a number of things you can do to look for a new job while you are employed. The first rule of doing this successfully is to never tell your co-workers that you are looking for work. If you can’t keep it a secret, they won’t keep it a secret either.

The second thing you want to avoid is using phones or emails at your job when you are looking for new employment. Many companies monitor their employees while they are at work, and they could discover that you are looking for a new job if they read your email or listen to you on the phone. Always use your private phone number and email address when looking for a new job. It should also be obvious that you never want to look for a job while you’re on your boss’s time. Remember, he is paying you to work for him. If he discovers what you’re doing, this could hurt you if a prospective employer calls your boss to ask about your performance.

You should also make sure that you are using your own personal equipment to look for a new job. You should never use the company printer or paper to type up resumes or cover letters. It may also be a good idea to purchase your own postage. If you take a break at your current job, and you decide to make a follow up call to a prospective employer using your own cell phone, make sure it is done in a place where other people won’t overhear you. If a company manager wants to interview you at a time when you will be at work, take off a personal day. If you tell your current boss that you need to leave because of an emergency, they may become suspicious.

It is also important to pay attention to how you dress when you are looking for a new job. If your current job requires you to wear casual clothing, don’t show up in a suit. Your boss will become suspicious as soon as he sees you. If you have to wear a suit to the interview, bring it in a case where you can put it on while you’re not in the office. When you are applying for a new job, inform the prospective employer that you can’t use your current job as a reference because you want to stay employed until you’ve found a new job. These are the primary things you will want to watch when you are looking for employment with another company.



Going from one job to another without a period of unemployment is very important. If you become unemployed, you will have to figure out how to support yourself while looking for more work. If you don’t have any money saved up, this can be very difficult. This is why it is so important to be secretive if you are looking for a new job while you’re currently employed. While it may not sound like a big deal, you could find yourself in a very difficult financial situation if you fail to keep your activities secret. It may also be a good idea to save up some money for a situation like this.
