Look Bad to quit before time on Doc Review Project?

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Aug 03, 2015 12:37 pm

So I just took the bar exam and want to make some cash doing doc review. I'd quit if/when a more permanent opportunity comes through.

Does it look really bad to quit a 6 month doc review project like 4 months in if you give appropriate notice, generally do a good job there? I don't know the doc review world etiquette. Thanks.

I've never worked as a contract doc reviewer, but if you quit that for permanent employment, I suspect they could find a suitable replacement in no time. Your peers at the project may hate you / be jelly, but whatever.

no there's nothing wrong with a temp worker quitting early to pursue something permanent. it's expected.
