Tomorrow I'm going to meet my team and sign my contract for my internship, but there's one thing I'm not sure about. It says in the contract that if I want to terminate my internship, I have to give them one month's notice. Is that standard/fair?
Since I'm only working there for 2 months, it seems odd that I need to give a month's notice to leave?
I figured it was two weeks notice out of courtesy/respect.
call HR and see if they will amend it to say 2 weeks
Ask yourself if it's worth it first. You inquire about it, best case scenario is that they amend it to say 2 weeks and your team gets an odd feeling in their stomachs that you're inquiring about it because you might bail. I'm not saying they're going to pull the offer by any means, but you run the risk of being on uneven ground with them coming in.
Worst case scenario, they say its company policy and that they're not going to amend it...and your team gets an odd feeling in their stomachs that you're inquiring about it because you might bail. I'm not saying they're going to pull the offer by any means, but you run the risk of being on uneven ground with them coming in.
Is it worth it? If there's a chance that you may bail, maybe. But do you want your team to think that either way? Probably not.
You are taking an internship and cant even commit to being there 2 months? This is the dumbest question Ive ever heard on here. You will look like a totally and complete idiot if you ask to amend for 2 weeks, I would pull your offer immediately and kick you is the ass out the door if you had the audacity to ask for that.
I'm not gonna pull out, or at least I cant forsee any reason why I would pull out. But if I had to leave for whatever reason, it would be hugely inconvenient if they forced me to stay there for a month.
How would they force you to stay there? Handcuff you to the desk? Get real dude, are you that wet behind the ears?
Look up "at-will employment" and you will realize the stupidity of your question...
Who's going to force you to go to work? You're working at a bank, not joining the military. Chill dude, do your two months, and seriously turn your attention to something else.
This is a dumb question
I hope someone in your group is reading this...if this is unique to just the place you're working.
Couple things: 1- You are doing an internship for 2 weeks. There is no need to bail or thinking thereof 2- If you were bailing, even during a normal job, you could even tell them you are leaving in 24 hours, they can't force you, and it isn't worth to them.
At the end of the day, I wouldn't worry about it unless you need it
