Ask HN: Should I tell the HR that I recently joined a company

3 pointsby 2bor-2nalmost 4 years ago
I recently got an offer from a company and I am joining them from next week, before that I was a freelance dev.<p>However, I have an upcoming HR interview with a German company this week. This opportunity is better than my current company. I am not sure whether to tell the HR about my new company or not, I don&#x27;t want to be perceived as a job hopper.<p>Should I mention about my new job to HR or just tell them that I am still working as a freelance dev?

Most firms who are going through a hiring process with you will ask you if you are in the process of being hired elsewhere. I think it&#x27;s ok to say something thing like you have an existing offer on the table that you have not accept yet.
