Worried About Career Impact After Switching Jobs Without Formal Resignation?

dip2016
I joined X organization on December 15 after waiting for 2 months. There was no work, and I was on the bench. In between, I got another offer from Y company. They asked me to abscond from X company and join immediately. As per communication with Y company, I joined Y company in February and stopped going to X company.

Fifteen days after joining Y company, there was no communication from X company. No one asked me where I was or why I wasn't coming to the office, so I resigned from X company on the same day. After 7 days, HR from X company asked me the reason for leaving, and HR was ready to relieve me in 7 days. I received the relieving letter from X company with an end date of March 15.

However, HR from Y company knows that I already absconded from X company and joined. When I emailed HR from Y company stating that I do not have any document from X company (though I came from X company, I mentioned in an email as Xa company as I do not want to disclose the company where I came from), and I will not submit any document from the same organization, and this will not create any issue with me in the future with my career with Y company. Please confirm.

After reading the email, HR told me that this will not create any problem for me and I can carry on but at the same time denied giving written confirmation.

Subsequently, HR informed me to reply back to the same email as "please ignore" as they do not want emails like this officially.

Now, my concern is, will this really make an issue with my career at Y company (as this is also an MNC)?

No Issues with Career Transition

I think this will not cause any issues. There are certain things that HR will not provide via email or in writing. Just obtain the confirmation letter as soon as possible and forget about the past company. You have received a relieving letter from X company, so there should be no issues from X company.

You are currently working at Y company, and you must have received the offer letter, and probably you have already received your salary too. Just check with your colleagues to find out how long it usually takes to receive the confirmation letter. Relax and keep working!

Hi Runal, thanks for your reply. My HR told me many times to just relax, as this will not create any issues. As per HR's suggestion, I joined the current company immediately. However, I was very afraid, so I dropped HR the email below. I mentioned the other company's name as my previous company (as I do not want to disclose the name of the company from where I came).

Since I do not have any documents from Xa (even though I came from X company, I mentioned Xa company in the email to avoid disclosing my previous company), I will not submit any documents from the same organization. This should not create any issues for me in the future with my career at Y company. Please confirm if this will be a problem.

Should I reply to the above email to request avoiding it, or would it be better not to? Is this legally right or wrong? Please suggest what I should do because I have done this for the first time in my life, and I am very concerned.
