I am a software developer presently in probation with one of the UK based software services firm. My family and home is in London but my work location is Manchester. I have been thinking to start contracting around London since last few months.
My present situation is that I am seeing an issue with my manager and she seems to be having very high expectations from me. I am sure she will not be giving a good feedback. My probation discussion is due for next week.
I am preparing the for the worst case where my probation may not extend and I may be terminated. In such a scenario, what can I give as a reason for employment ending? My company has a policy that it discloses only the dates of employment. However, it has six months probation and if my probation ends, then it will end before 6 months. My colleagues know about my contributions and appreciate it. They have also offered me references in case I need it.
I need help in providing the suitable reason for leaving.
Can I give the below as reason for employment ending ? :
I wanted to start contracting and Manchester was far from my home and family in London and wanted to get back to and work in London. So I resigned.
With the above reason, I will be restricting myself to contracting which I actually wanted to start soon. But, I will also be restricting to London based opportunities. I prefer to work around London but if situation arises, I do not mind working in some other location for some time on a short term contract and then move back to London later.
Please help.
Thanks in advance ,
