I work full time in an admin role but have recently seen a part time role I am thinking of applying for. I have checked my current contract and although I have only been in my current full time job for just under a year, I have to give 3 months notice to leave. This puts me in a real predicament as most admin roles I've had - and very senior one's at that, only require one month's notice.
I'm worried about applying for the role and being asked about notice period and not able to take on a new role (either this role or anything that comes up in the future) due to the long notice period I have to do. I've never come across this before and I wondered how easy it is to waiver this sort of long notice period. Will I be made to work 3 months notice and if I get offered a role elsewhere which needs to start in a months time, would I have to decline that job?
I find this all very confusing. Any ideas?
