Delhi HR Viral Post: What would you do if someone joined your team and quit before completing even one full day? That’s exactly what happened to Delhi-based HR executive Khushie Chaurasiya, and her reaction to it is now going viral on LinkedIn. In her post, Chaurasiya shared how a new hire joined for a sales role and by the end of Day 1, simply texted: "Mujhe yeh kaam pasand nahi aaya (I didn’t like the job). No call, no proper explanation. Just done." She said the candidate didn’t express any concerns earlier, and everything about the role, including its challenges, had been clearly discussed before hiring. This sudden exit left her wondering: “So what changed overnight?”
Her post wasn’t just about this incident; it was a message to all job seekers. She wrote, “No job becomes perfect in a day. No company can prove everything in 24 hours. And no role will ever feel ‘comfortable’ until you give it your time, energy, and mindset.”
She also shared some straightforward advice:
“Ask your doubts clearly during the interview.”
“If you're unsure, wait—don't rush to say yes.”
“Once committed, try to give your role a fair chance before deciding it's 'not for you.’”
“And most importantly—communicate. Silence never shows professionalism.”
Khushie ended her note with a powerful thought for both job seekers and recruiters: “We as HRs don’t just hire people—we believe in people. But belief only works when it’s mutual.”
Her post struck a chord with thousands, reminding everyone that success doesn’t come overnight, but respect and communication should always come first.
The post shared 6 days ago received significant likes and comments from LinkedIn users. While many users shared their experience, others agreed with the post. One user wrote, "Every coin has two faces. The sales teams and the way they work are not always ethical. There are literally pressure cookers in which candidates replace the chole. And you know what goes next? This part is never explained in any interview, so how toxic it will get on some days. Maybe the candidates who left on the first day experience the same."
"It also depends on how the supervisor handles the joinee. He should be given a sense of belongingness by mentoring and guidance. In case of a sales profile, the supervisor must take the new joinee on calls. I feel in this case, the supervisor must have set unreasonable expectations on the 1st day...request you to talk to the joinee...he will give more insight," a second user added.
"Sales work often feels highly demanding and underpaid. The compensation doesn’t reflect the effort – it feels more like labor than a salaried job. The pressure is intense, as if the entire company’s performance depends solely on us. On top of that, there’s often a lack of respect from team leaders and managers," added a third user. "Love this reminder—99% of job satisfaction comes from clarity and communication, not charisma or job perks," added another user.
