She has a question about when to tell her new boss that she’s interested in another internal opportunity.
Started my job at a new company less than 6 months ago. Primary role is essentially as an assistant. I have been doing side projects, with my direct boss’ blessing, involved in other areas of the company. I am pretty good at the projects I have been working on, and I really enjoy it.
A little birdie told me the corporate office (we are a branch) is hiring someone for a full-time role, doing what I have been working on, and suggested I throw my name in the hat.
My question: should I tell my boss I am interested prior to even talking to the guy who is posting the job? I don’t want to be sneaky, I feel I have earned his trust. ( also he is a top dollar producer and NO one wants to piss him off).
What do you think?
