Yes, I've been told to look first and then resign, I'm a bit concerned about telling my potential new employer not to ask for my references just yet haha - I'm sure they'll need to know what my reasons are and I hate making stuff up, not sure how to explain this and actually many other reasons for looking for new job without smearing my current employer.
I've found one company I'll probably get in touch with and before sending my CV I'll phone them ask and try to explain I need this to be confidential. Think it's reasonable to ask for that.
- whichdan 14y agoJust say "references available upon request" and try to find other people you've done programming projects with who would be comfortable being a reference. Focus on what you want out of a new position, and what you could bring to the company. There's no need to mention anything about your previous company except the successes you've had there (projects, assignments, etc).
