My son was told he had to quit his position at UPS before applying for an internal position. If he doesn’t get the position he applied for he will not be able to go back to his original position. This information was told by a manager. Is this true? I don’t know if his manager is lying to keep him because he is ready to quit. He’s been there for almost 5 years. Also during his orientation a few years ago he was told he can apply within, I’m just confused where the quitting fit into all this, just for him to get another position. He work in the Philadelphia area.
