No, no. You wait until you start at the new job and then you give two weeks. This works the best since the last two weeks at a job you don't really do to much and the first week a new job is just onboarding.
Plus you get the added bonus of an additional two weeks pay.
Young people might not even realize, but back in the olden times of non-"unlimited vacation" employers were required to payout your unused vacation time when you left (usually leaving you with a fair bit of extra cash).
Unlimited vacation means that you no longer get this even though you probably take the same amount of leave, so you have to figure out a way to make up for this yourself.
- triyambakam 4y agoWow, sounds crazy enough to work
- PheonixPharts 4y agoIt's more than just a crazy idea. I joined a high-risk small startup coming from a very stable job with a new baby to take care of. Being unemployed at the time was absolutely not an option. The new company seemed amazing and like a great opportunity, but they didn't even have health insurance for remote employees (this was awhile back), so I was very worried that something would fall through at the last moment. I've heard stories of people working two remote jobs to double their income, but based on my experience of just two weeks overlap the stress induced from secretly having two jobs indefinitely seems to outweigh the financial benefit.

Same here. I read about this happening, but can't imagine wanting to deal with that kind of stress and anxiety personally.
