I was approached by my general manager yesterday who told me she knows I am interviewing for another job.
Fact is, I was called from a recruiter who presented a great opportunity for me and so I decided to pursue an interview with this larger provider.
I was offered a job that pays more than $10k a year than what I am currently making. I verbally told the new job I would accept it, but they needed to check some references from me so I presented them with 3 previous managers to contact. I also asked the potential job NOT to contact my current employer which they said they WOULD NOT.
Yesterday, I was approached by my current boss who told me she is well aware that I am actively interviewing and she had NO idea I was unhappy in my current job. I was NOT ready to hand in a resignation and I denied interviewing as i was put on the spot........ she told me she was told by a reliable source that I am interviewing and that she knows I am doing do. I told her I am always being approached by recruiters and I have listend to some of their offers, but for the most nothing has caused me to wish to leave at this time.
Truth be told I am still in the hiring process at the potential employer. I have not cleared the entire hiring process therefor not ready to resign at my current position.
WHO told my boss I am wanting to quit? She knows it's about the offer of $$ and my low salary where I am at. ( So it's someone who really knows the facts.. )
I emailed all three of my used references to ask them if they spoke ti my current manager and told them what she told me on the spot. I also made it clear that I was not 100% ready to resign due to waiting Human Resources clearance... which I did recieve later that day... I wanted them to know someone made it very awkward and on the spor for me. .....
What do I do now? Hand in my resignation on Monday? Do I telll them it's purely financial in the letter?
