Can managers see if their employee posts for another role?
In the past, managers were usually unaware of their employees seeking other opportunities until final interview stages.
I’m curious if Managers can actually see when an employee simply posts for a different role now.
Thoughts?
LOL at the downvotes!
Who are the people that frequent this site, my goodness. Just a ton of people that hate anything resembling truth.
Can hiring managers see if you’ve applied for 28 other jobs this week? In hopes that someone - anyone - will save you from the current ineptitude in your current department?
Oh and telling them hoping that they will match the offer FORGET IT. When you apply don’t do it as a threat it won’t work. By the time i am applying it is more than just money behind the move but i never want to stay anyway after I decided to move on. I am good for 5-6 in one position then bore so refreshing is not a bad thing for you or the company
I did not say a word to my manager until i had offer in hand and accepted. That was the first he/she heard of it. I did not feel the need to tell my manager because if i did not get the position than it was a non issue. This is a poker game and this is the only advantage you have play it.
I would strongly advise consulting your current manager and getting their advice prior to applying for any role. Also not a bad idea to let them know if you’re considering looking externally even as well. Transparency is key and can really build respect.
Not as far as I can tell. But recruiters are pushing harder and harder for either the employee or future hiring manager to tell the previous manager earlier in the process. It’s BS to me that your current manager has to know about it before you even have any idea what the offer will be. Burns a bridge that may not need to be burned if the offer is a low or no (lateral) raise, which is often unclear due to bad information from recruiters, many of which are not great. This is not how other companies do this.
No, manager cannot see that.
We cannot that I know of. Don't care if reports apply. Do want a heads up for a potential call from the hiring manager.
