I am in the last months of my fellowship and in November, I had interviewed for a position at a teaching hospital. It was for a position that really does not exist yet (in primary care) but the person I was interviewing with said there is room in their seperate outpatient office if that doesnt pan out. I thought it was great either way. My current supervisors didnt think so and were wary.
Because the new position wanted someone to start as soon as the position was created, I accepted a verbal offer and let them know that I would consider leaving my fellowship early to come work for them. They said great.
I've been working on filling out credentialing forms and other paperwork, getting references, etc. I had emailed the person who interviewed me for an update about the position and what he may have had in mind for a start date.
He said he does not know, and that my supervisors either seem to be upset that I am leaving early or feel I am not doing well based on their lukewarm/negative references. This was news to me as of course I had gotten feedback to improve in a few areas but no feeling that I was doing poorly.
The thing is, I have not told my current supervisors that I am considering leaving early. I'm afraid they now know because of conversations they may have had with the person checking my references, who works in medical staff services. I may not be considered for the job any longer but I have not heard from the person who interviewed me, as he was wanting to call and speak to my supervisors personally.
My question is, how do I handle this? I will admit to wanting to leave early if they ask. But I also want to know what they put in my reference letter that points to them being upset or giving negative references about me. If they're upset, that's an egregious mistake they've made to let their emotions color their review of my performance. I would appreciate any direction.
