So, I got a job months ago which I haven't started yet (pre-employment wading through treacle). Since then, unsure about whether it would even go ahead, I've been continuing to research ideas.
Recently I came up with something in which I could transfer my existing skills without having to retrain from scratch, therefore taking less of a pay cut. I spoke to the head of faculty today, just wanting some guidance on training. She told me about a potentially suitable role which would be FT and higher paid with scope for progression without retraining. I'm really interested in it and she did say there aren't many such posts. She also explained that once you get a foot in the door there are various possibilities.
In this situation, if I'm offered the post, would it be awful to hand in my notice within weeks of starting? I realise it wouldn't be great form but is it a complete no-no? I could potentially do a qualification and look for something similar in future but these posts are few and far between.
