What happens if the employer finds out that you are looking for a new job?
Every company has a different policy on how they would handle the situation.





If you are top-notch employee, they will probe to see why you want to leave and will try to retain you.





Some companies will just let you be.





Some companies will use it against you for grounds of termination. Depending on where you live, they can use it to terminate your employment.





Hope it helps
