[quote=Anonymous]If your current manager put you in for an enormous award after only a year, that is an enormous vote of confidence in you. If I were in their shoes, I would feel a bit betrayed to find out you were applying for other jobs already. Like, why am I investing in this person when she’s looking to bail out? She probably already knows about this through the rumor mill. I would talk to her. Something like: “I am really enjoying working for you, and I am beyond appreciative of the recognition you have given me. Somewhat impulsively, I threw my hat in the ring for the VP role, just as a personal stretch, to see what happens. I just wanted you to hear this from me. I want you to know that I am not job hunting per se. This was really just a one-off. I have great respect for you and hope my interest in testing the waters doesn’t affect our working relationship, which I really value.”[/quote]
