<prompt> Human: Ill be at my current job for 3 years next month September. I started in 2013 at 10hr., but had full time benefits with PTO etc. Recently I was promoted, and I use quotes because though I got a big bump in pay and joined the union, I got busted back to part time because no full time positions are available. Essentially Im the fill in guy when someone calls outtakes time off.The promotion isnt the step up I thought itd be and now that summer is coming to an end, a lot of the hours I got for ppl taking vacation and time off will be drying up. Ive met the GM for one of our clients multiple times and checking their website, they have some vacancies. How do I go about asking him about the vacancies without alerting my current employer? I really do like my job but economically its not adding up anymore. My boss at my current job is also a great person to know for networking, but since I work for him I cant exactly ask him to help me find another job. Advice is appreciated!  <response>: I dont know how close you are to the guy. But if it were me and I didnt know him all that well Id try to strike up a conversation, talk for a bit, see if he is the kind of guy I would want to work with and if he was Id ask for his card.The second he gives it to me he should know Im in the market and if he isnt a A-hole, he would know not to tell your boss. After that I would shoot him an email with my resume. If he doesnt go the hiring Id ask if he would be comfortable giving my resume to the hiring manager, if he tells me yes Id attach the resume. If he is a GM he should have no problem saying no.To be honest, Im the IT guy and a few times talking to guests they have casually told me theyd like to hire me. So it isnt that uncommon. I know it happened to a good friend of mine as well.Edit: But I will say! There is always a change youre found it anytime you look for a new job.
