Leave first job after 4 months?
Started Wayfair in their Labs program a month ago. Got an offer from Blackrock but already accepted Wayfair by then. Since I learnt Blackrock can learn about employment history through background check let them know about Wayfair job to send some good faith their way. HR at Blackrock hasn't replied. Have I blown it?
They will check only employers you tell them.
I guess I blew it then.
Why do you want to hide it?
I figure the fact that I joined a company for 3 months is reason to cancel he hiring contract.
You are voluntarily leaving for a better offer. You are only going to burn bridges with your old company but the new place won't care as long as you come out clear to them. Employment history can be easily traced through worknumber so better keep things transparent with everyone (whenever asked for).
Hi OP in the same boat, what would you recommend
I think Next company does back ground check only on those employers which you tell them. Reality could be different tho.
