- How To Explain Being Fired In A Job Interview - Sample Answers and Examples to “Why did you leave your last job?” question. Good answers if you were fired or if your contract has been terminated. Did you know that the vast majority of employees have been fired at least once in their career? If your employment has been terminated, you will most likely need to explain this situation to your potential employers. And without having a strategy behind your answer, this part of the job interview is very intimidating. In this video I will give you a 4 step strategy of how to explain your termination during the interview. And if you stick with me till the end, I also give examples of responses for different situations of being fired, which will help you formulate your own interview answer.
1.Don’t be embarrassed or scared to talk about it. It’s easier say rather than do it. But just think for a second, you have already gone through this probably traumatic experience. And beating yourself up due to being fired or doubting yourself will NOT let you move forward. It will keep reviving those negative memories and feelings.Everyone deserves a job they love. And you deserve your chance to be happy at work. You can’t let the past prevent you from this.
Own it, having been fired or terminated experience and be natural about it. The interviewer will feel exactly how YOU feel about being fired.
2. Focus on positive aspects and on what you’ve learned. Your termination has been a learning experience. Instead of focusing on how difficult and negative this experience has been, be positive about the fact that you made through this challenge. And you did it the best you possibly could. Remember all the good things you have learned at this job and mention them. Including a “lesson learned” sentence in your answer will show your awareness and adaptability. And turning something negative into an asset will demonstrate your sincerity and maturity...

Have you been asked "Why Did You Leave Your Previous Job?" in an interview? What have you responded if you've previously been fired?
I have been fired and it's been haunting me in each interview at first, I hated getting asked about it but I already worked in other jobs so I don't care as much now
@@positivethinking4464 It's hard at the beginning, during the first interviews, but once you get used to answering this question with an ease, it is really not that big of a deal!
@Jonathan Perry So you left on good terms with your ex-manager, which is a huge plus. It makes the situation easier to discuss. Did they hire you for the job?
@Jonathan Perry Was your boss ok to talk to them?
I used your tips and nailed it. The company I interviewing for was more than pleased
I was recently fixed from my job due to having an immature and an inexperinced lead who threw me under the bus. I really loved my job. This is very helpful. Gives me the confidence. I am 52 and it was the first time I have been fired.
This is a turning point for you and there are going to be mixed feelings for a while. But don't doubt even for a second that things will turn out even better than they used to do. Take it one step at a time, polish your resume and start applying for jobs. Thanks for stopping by and for your kind feedback and keep me updated on how things are going!
@@myemmotion I respectfully disagree. I know my opinion doesn't matter to you or anyone else in the comments but I disagree because instead of feeling sad and depressed about being fired and unemployed you can just use that opportunity to become an entrepreneur and create your own business. Don't let these managers and supervisors and CEOs bring you down by getting you fired you can just create your own opportunity in life and your own path to success by creating and starting a business. I never said it was easy and it's going to be hard and challenging but if you're passionate about creating and starting your own company then do it. No one said it was easy but if you have the passion and drive then do it
@@myemmotion that's why I became an entrepreneur and created and built my own business and invested in other businesses. Because I didn't let the managers and supervisors determine my success and Future. It's called passion.
@@gabrielarivett381 Each opinion expressed here matters. So I appreciate your input and I completely agree with you that becoming an entrepreneur can drastically change your life for better. But you have to agree that it isn't for everyone.
@@myemmotion True. I Agree. Entrepreneurship is Not for everybody.
Not everyone has the drive and passion.
When you want to trash talk your previous employer cause they did you dirty, but you gotta suck it in in order to land the job 😭
Never talk about the negatives. Phrase it diplomatically. Talk about the positive effects the job had on you. The potential employer doesn't want to see what you'll do to them if they believe in you.
@@CraigMansfield Yeah, no shit. Otherwise you won't get the job. It's called "Fake it till you make it"
best thing that ever happened to me was being fired from my shit jobs
it stung and hurt but im at a better place now.
Definitely a blessing. You also handled it right.
How did you get another job after being fired?
@@ceramikxxx5882 keep applying and the right job will come along.
I've been fired 3 times in a row
I never tell them in the interview
my last job I was NOT fired
and it helped me get my current dream job!!
I have missed seeing you around! :)
Of course, I remember your job hunting journey. You did amazingly well, because you worked hard to get that "dream job", so you absolutely deserve it!
EMMOTION by Marat thank you for your encouragement and support Marat 🙏
What if they found out through the background check?
I had a quick question. Did they not find out through a background check? If so, how did you go about doing this because I would love to use your advice!
This is really inspiring applebomb, do you mind sharing your story of how you came out of it even after 3 times fired?
Thank you for this. I was just fired for being caught publicly discussing my disappointment about my own wages and the 25 cent pay raise I was offered after my stellar performance review. It was devastating, but oddly enough a relief due to the toxic environment at work caused by the owner of the company. But I am concerned about having to apply for new jobs with this dark spot on my resume now, as I have never been fired or suspended from any job even though I'm 56 years old. Thanks to your very calming, useful, and positive video I feel better prepared now. Much appreciation to you.
Just to let you know, it is illegal to be fired for discussing wages. If you can prove that this is why you were fired, you can most definitely sue for lost wages
@@cameronr7223 thank you. Yes, I discovered that soon after this happened and I filed charges against the company with the National Labor Relations Board. They took my affadavit and are currently investigating. It can take 3-6 months I was told to have a conclusion, though. So, in the meantime I'm still anxious about how to reply to a potential employer when they ask if, and why, I was let go from my previous company. I have just started applying for a new job and it weighs heavily on my mind. Do you have any advice for me?
I was terminated from my job, worked with them for almost 2 years since 2021, and I agree that what you said sir that it is a speed bump on the way. but my journey has been astoundingly great working with them and I now knew what I lacked and will be better for my next. will also have an interview this coming wednesday of March 22, and I'm encouraged with this video. Thank you for the advices and the encouragement sir. ^_^
I was unexpectedly fired from one of the big 4 consulting firms this past Friday. I haven't been feeling great about it, but this video has really given me more confidence as I strategize to re-enter the job market. Thank you for the encouraging words!
you will survive and thrive!
Be strategic find out what HR is going to say. If they charge not going to hold anything against you why would you put yourself in a bad predicament. Have plenty of references lined up
I was wrongly fired today from my job by my stupid and much more expecting manager after he got regular gossips from 2 dishonest colleagues. I was very angry at my manager, other 2 colleagues are on vacation and I worked so hard, however got no praise from manager or they have never been satisfied. I thought it was good for me to find better job with my degree, your videos are giving me tips to avoid uneasy situation in future interview, Thank you,
Thank you for number 3, I have been agonizing over what to say about two jobs where I was fired without cause.
Point #2 resonated with me a lot - to takeaway lessons from negative circumstances! I also really like the examples at the end, which are immediately actionable. Really appreciate this useful content 👍🏻
Absolutely. Going through a situation like that is clearly not easy and it is an important lesson which only makes one a better professional. I am really glad you found it useful, thanks a lot for your feedback! :)
The last option was definitely mine! We would only mentions the bad things never gave me credit for the good things I did! Thank you great positive video very compassionate
You are very welcome! I am glad you found it positive, thanks for stopping by and best of luck with your interviews. Let me know how it goes!
I've watched dozens of these what to say videos and this is the first one to put it like that. The interview is not the right platform to express how you feel about it.
I took a TON of notes from this video. It was truly helpful and prepares me for my next interview. Thank you for creating this!
You can't believe how much I appreciate this,I think I talked too much about being fired and it was hard to concentrate on my skills
step 4 is very much the truth
That's a mistake we all tend to make, concentrating on something which seems to be a big deal to us when in fact, it is not! Glad you've gotten better while responding to this!
@@myemmotion Thanks for your help, hope to see you live next sunday
Wow after listening to your video. I feel great about being fired
This has to be one of the best videos I've seen on this topic. Very helpful. Thank you
You are so very welcome! I am glad you found it helpful and hope your interview goes great! Thanks for stopping by and keep me posted!
Could not agree anymore, some very useful insights would have helped me.
This is very useful and thank you so much. I was wrongfully terminated from my position. My business partners accused me of encouraging clients to leave the company. When I told them I never did that and asked for evidence of their claims against me I never received it. I now have a lawyer! However, it was a very traumatic experience for me and I am still processing through this dramatic experience to a better mentality with the help of therapy. I've been working with my business partners for 10 years! I will definitely take these pointers into account! Lord knows I need to!!!!!
eric may i ask where do you live texas is a right to work state and I'm having trouble getting a lawyer to look at my case
@@lalisantana2991: I live in Iowa.
Im done with an online interview this morning. Unfortunately, I talked to much about my old boss. Thanks for sharing this, very helpful!
You are so very welcome! I am actually giving even more details in “Why did you leave your last job” video, just in case if you need further ideas of how to respond.
Thanks for your kind feedback and keep me posted on how it goes!
Me too. Learned from this video.
I actually did this too, on a interview I couldn’t help talking about my old boss lol
I have been fired 10 times with a bachelor degree..
Always best to be short and to the point, and remain calm and professional about it
Yes, it's important to appear confident and professional about it. No matter how awful your ex-boss has been to you it isn't the right time to talk about that.
@@myemmotion I have been fired 4th time out of 6 jobs. Those 2 where I was not fired I left because bosess were annoying and if I had not left them myself, I think it was matter of time till they would have fired me :) so atfter this its hard to look confident. I do not count a work in my fathers farm, where he would gladly hire me anytime.
@@Name-lt2tz I know what you mean. But we all deserve a new beginning, if you do your best to be cool about it, it's going to translate into confidence and more chances of getting the job!
Best advise I've ever heard. I just watched four of your videos. This is a great channel!
Thanks for stopping by and telling this. I really appreciate your kind words!
And regarding "being fired", it is just another bump on the road which should not distract you from getting to where you want to get! Best of luck!
@@myemmotion Thank you, I can tell your advice is taken either from personal experience or real data. There’s a lot of fluff out there, I can tell this is something real and genuinely useful.
@@BlackRaven156 Both, personal experience and real data. Also when you've recruited many profiles for many different roles, it's easier to have that bigger picture and knowing what the company and the hiring managers expect to hear (or what puts them off).
If you are getting ready for a job interview, I hope it goes great. Keep me updated!
@@myemmotion Thank you, I’m feeling uncertain about where I’m at now and trying to plan ahead.
@@BlackRaven156 It's completely normal, you don't want to re-live a similar experience to the one you've gone through recently. Do your best to keep yourself busy, it doesn't need to be planning too far ahead. Just focus and do things which make you feel good.
My situation was mostly #3 but also had #2. But I would answer saying that. “I learned a lot from my time at XXX but a lot of things changed and it didn’t make sense for me and the organization to continue so we parted ways”
I recently got fired from my job, and I had an intervew the next day. I basically said I made a food saftey mistake and was given my notice as a result. Then I went on to describe the lessons I'd learned from the experience so I wouldn't make a mistake like that again.
That answer seemed to go down pretty well.
They like it when you learn from your mistakes and do better. did you hear back from them?
That is a good way of explaining it. You've come across as sincere and as someone who keeps improving. How did the recruitment process with them go?
@@amysimmons805 Yes, it's one of the ways to give a powerful answer.
@@amysimmons805 Yes, they've invited me back for the second interview. :D It's such a weight off my shoulders to know the situation is already out there and I don't have to hide it.
@@Appollochan Congrats, that's cool.Hope you get the job
Both of your videos on why did you leave your last job are great and these answers helped me very much! Thank you
You are very welcome!
This is so awesome. I really appreciate your advice and at the end I feel good about answering this question and I feel good about moving forward. Thank you
Hi Latanya, you are very welcome! Being fired can be quite emotionally draining and it's important having a strategy while facing the related questions. I've given some more examples in this video also, just in case: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
Best of luck with your job search and keep me posted! :)
I love how positive you are. Thanks
All the examples that you saw is a brief history for what happen in my last job
That means you have your answer ready already :) Best of luck with your interviews!
I used your tips to help myself navigate an interview today. I will let you know if I get the job. ;) Thank you so much for addressing this issue and offering valuable tips!
I am really glad to hear that. Hope you get the job, keep me updated! :)
did you get it?
@@gwaladrielle I was wondering that too!
how did it go?
@@amysimmons805 @BRAVADO @EMMOTION by Marat
I didn't get the job that I used these tips for. For me, I have to be honest and tell the truth, no matter the cost, and that meant being transparent about why I was fired. My honesty landed me a GREAT job where I am very happy! :) Thanks for asking!!
My guy here is giving clear and concise points and people are still asking questions he already answered in the video 🙁
I found this entire video very informative.. The 3 examples given where wonderful, especially 2 &3 - for me. It is a great model for me to use as I practice for my interview. Thank you so much!
I am really glad you found the video informative! You are so welcome, hope your interview goes great, thank you for your kind feedback! Keep me posted on how it goes!
The way you put it seems to be very positive. Neither it will damage the reputation of the employee or risk his future job
Thank you for enlightening me. I am in the same situation right now. God bless
You are very welcome! I am sure the situation is going to change soon, take it one step at a time. Best of luck with your job search!
I was just fired about 4 hours ago for poor performance as I had a new manager who really dug into me everyday and it caused my own confidence in my work to drop. Would I explain my situation as example 1? I’m also in HR, so I know a bit about what they are looking to hear (the role I was fired from was my first in my career so entry level). Any advice on what might help me sell myself would be perfect.
I hope you are doing better now ❤
Seems my former job had all 3 of these conditions. Something very very bad happened to me at a former job and I have been seen as undesirable because I start to cry when I begin to talk about it. I was taught that both quitting and being fired were very bad things and people in those positions deserve to starve to death on the street. Its taken me years to even realize that someone might want to help out there. How do you go about saying that you have grown and changed as person since poor performance socially in the past?
This is great information. Thank you so much. I was terminated from an executive role and have not been listing that on applications or in interviews, I will now.
You are very welcome! Sometimes it's more about the pressure we feel about the whole experience (usually negative pressure), rather than about the actual facts of a lot of responsibility handled, everything we've learned and we bring to the table.
Good luck with your interview! I have another video on handing "Why did you leave your last job?" which might help as well: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
@@myemmotion Thanks, part of it was because I was told since I was approved for unemployment that the agency could not claim I was terminated, is that true?
@@15tolife87 You can collect unemployment after getting fired, unless the decision on termination was taken due to a misconduct, violation of company rules, etc. There are specific cases when an employee might be ineligible for unemployment.
I have Bachelor Degree in Computing Science and Information Systems with a GPA of 3.09 back in 2014. When I worked in my first company, it was okay from 2014 to 2019.
But when I worked for my second company I was chased away after 3 years and chased away by many companies less than six months.
Now in my thirties, I am frustrated for being unemployed many times and want to quit about IT career by saving enough to study Accounting and change my career.
I did well in Accounting in high school but didn't study Accounting in College/University yet in the past.
Best firing explanation video out there!!!!
Thanks
Thank you so much!
This is perfect. No other video is needed. Loved rhe examples used.
this content is very helpful for specific situations of leaving your previous job
I am really glad you think so!
Brilliant. Would you kindly suggest the best answer for : "Why did you leave (resign) your last job (just 2 weeks ago), without a new job lined up?" Thank you.
This channel helped get me to my first job, and now i'm getting another tip!!...this is so helpful!! Keep making content!!😊😊😊😊
I am so happy to hear that. I am sure you’ll be rocking any interviews or performance evaluations to come your way :) Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you for this! Genuinely appreciate it :)
I would not say you were fired. Just say role was eliminated due to company going in different direction. At the end of the day companies can’t really verify if you were fired or not due to risk of being sued.
We indeed can say whatever we feel like saying, but being truthful about it is important. The world is actually very small, especially in certain industries, they can eventually find out through "backdoor" references and building a solid professional relationship requires honesty. Also for one's peace of mind!
If you use something along the line to the examples I give, you don't exactly say that you've been fired, but you are not telling a lie either. But of course it's down to everyone's concrete situation! Thanks for your feedback!
Thank you so much for sharing these ideas with us! I found it to be very helpful and encouraging! Much appreciated!
The last example was the answer I was looking for. Thank you!!
You are so very welcome! Best of luck with your interview, keep me posted!
Love the rationale in the explanation. Thanks.
My most recent employment ended even when I was getting the work done and correctly. The my past employer decided I would be a better fit for another industry. He sort of gave me an explanation that didn't make much sense. A few days after I left he advertised for someone more experienced. I'm an entry level employee and I wasn't getting much training from there. The job only lasted 2 months, so I'm nervous going into interviews and explaining why I left.
You should not be worried at all. Every employee has been fired from work at least once, just get your "reason" straight and stick to it during interviews. Even if you say that the position wasn't the right fit for you, most hiring managers would understand and wouldn't dig further.
Here I go through a few more scenarios: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the advice! How would you speak to losing a job for "falsifying documents". Long story short, it wasnt necessarily the case, but that's whats on my record as reason for termination. I was a hard worker and committed to my work. For clarification, I was in a management position and am currently looking for another management position. Obviously being honest isn't going get me a job, but I dont want to lie about it either. Thanks in advance!
I wouldn't go very much into details, unless they've seen your record and insist on finding out more. What was the context of "falsifying documents"? Even if I don't know the full story, it could have been something which you've been pressured to do by the upper management.
Excellent video. Your responses are perfectly suitable to me
I appreciate that!
You make useful content I don't think I have seen anything like this on youtube
Thank you so much. I am really glad you think so! Best of luck!

Thanks!
Thank you for this! I am worried that I am about to be terminated/let go from my current position with [NAME REDACTED] and am trying be proactive in preparation for the worst case scenario.
However, I find it frustrating that providing a more direct answer for why a previous job didn't work out is considered to be immature and unprofessional. For me, that standard of practice encourages lying by omission more than it does clear and honest communication. To be clear, that's not a criticism of you or of any of the advice that you have provided here. It's just my own personal grievance with a lot of office and workplace culture(s).
Spot on answers
Thank you!
Excellent video. Very helpful tips.
Focusing on all the learning 💪
Absolutely!
Good strategy to answer when you get fired. It’s also your answer to why did you leave your last job question…
I am glad you found it helpful!
This is excellent.
How do you handle an interviewer who wants to spend more than a minute on a job termination? I noticed that with an interviewer a few years ago and she was trying to talk me down on what happened. I tried to move on based on a similar response you provided in your video and she wouldn't let it go.
Did you feel comfortable during her questions? Was she pushing too hard? It's obvious that she didn't find the answer sufficient and depending on what your impressions on them were, you can decide if you tell them more or not. If they come across understanding that's good, but most of the times such noisy interviewers are not a good sign.
I discuss this further in this video: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
Awesome tips, very helpful examples
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the wonderful tips handsome ❤
Wonderful
Thanks a lot! Good luck with your interview :)
Never tell an employer in an interview you were fired. Either say you still work there, or say you gave two weeks notice. It's true that if you lie you can get caught, but in my experience you probably won't get caught - and it's also been my experience employers have hundreds of applicants to choose through and will NEVER consider someone who was fired.
Motherfucker I ain't gonna fucking lie fuck liars if they ask I'm not a fucking liar like you obviously are 🙄🙄🙄!!!

great video
Thought it was illegal for the company that fired you to tell anyone they fired you?
They can get sued.
Companies can only verify hire dates and employment end dates
Great video, thank you
Thank you very much!
Unique content
thanks for this!
My pleasure!
This is a real help. What you said also made me feel good about answering these questions
I am really glad to hear this!
If you were fired for misconduct or theft how do you explain this to your next boss?
Don't!
Марат, спасибо за хорошее видео и рекоммендации. Надеюсь они сработают во время моего следующего интервью. Удачи и вам и Вашему каналу. Вы молодец, что делаете контент на английском языке. Это большой шаг в перед как для видео консультанта- ютубера.

Im going through a gas lighting situation right now an my boss has given me 6days to improve my work or im gone. The goalposts were changed for me and i wasnt told. Im given bad equipment to work with and told ive got to do what the others are doing with better equipment and she says that i am just making up excuses. I have felt so low. Im using these feelings to develop my resume rather than when the sh.....t hits the fan. Im 66 and have never been fired it will effect my pension that i can draw in 5 months and prevent me paying my debts so i can retire. I know i cant achieve what my toxic boss expects. Perhaps on Wednesday when i find out what is going to happen i will go to her boss. I wont have anything to lose. I have told her im not happy with her screaming at me, i feel disrespected and it would have helped if she had notified me that things had changed. She just reflect on what she had said and told me all the managers are in agreement with her. What ever do these people get out of being like this? Yes why would i even want to be there. Being fired will be so freeing. Thank you for your video.
Sir i got fired from my recent job which im doing for 5 years ,to be honest success goes in my head and i take advantage of my administration which disgrace them,today im regretting a lot and i dont have confidence to reveal ...for new job interview?
Don't enter into details, focus on the positive aspects.
Well explained with smile
Unintentional time clock theft..I won't get into much detail but earlier this year I was terminated from a job I was at for 2 years...
Miscommunication happens at work, you don't have to give an exact reason, if you don't wish to.
In this newer video, I give some more answer examples: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
Was fired given no reason, i have agoraphobia now, and also i havent worked in 2 years
People with agoraphobia has had their symptoms aggravated after the pandemic. I hope you can slowly make step by step improvement. Have you tried looking for a job already? A remote work job market has increased a lot!
When I think about job interview ,I always feel I need to fake . How can I handle this thought ? Especially I was dealing with lot of personal issues in life which I cannot explain in an interview . How can I be genuine and original while explaining my gaps ?
Hi Anu! You know the first thing to keep in mind during job interviews is that you are not there to open up about your personal life. Any personal issues which you have gone through should remain personal, unless you've already known these people for a while and they already have a clear image of you as a professional.
You don't have to be fake at all. But an hour job interview is all what you have to build a certain image of yourself as a professional, in the eyes of your interviewers. I'd always suggest focusing mostly on professional aspects of your profile. And when you are explaining the gaps be completely natural and genuine, but don't lower your guard. You are not there to make friends (not during the first time you see them), later on you can always explain all the personal aspects you'd like to explain, once they get to know you!
@@myemmotion probably I should watch good amount of mock interviews to learn how to have a professional conversation . Whenever I think about interview, all I can imagine is the biggest speech of my life 😲😲I got it !
@@anu7982 Haha, not at all. In fact you should keep your longest answers to about a minute, a minute and half of your time. An interview is not an interrogation, it should be a positive interaction, no matter how nervous you might feel :)
I know how u feel, this video helped though
I got fired in March from food lion and I have an interview today at 3:30 and I’m nervous to talk about it, I hope this video helps
How did your interview go? I hope you've practiced before and you rocked it. Let me know.
Just in case if you need more examples of what to say, this video is also helpful: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
EMMOTION by Marat I got the job! Your tips were very helpful and improved my confidence, they only asked one question about my previous job and it was what I did and if I liked it. They didn’t ask why I left so I’m glad for that, $10/hour and tips, good easy high school job, I thank you
@@tymicsha3646 You've totally nailed it and got the job in a record time! Congratulations! :) I am so glad that things have worked out nicely, hope you enjoy the job and the environment there. Best of luck and keep me posted on how things go!
Thank you greatly
Very nice👍👍👍
Thank you!
Really appreciate the great tips! Hopefully my excel tutorials will show though :)
Can I say it was "mutual agreement for me to leave the role" instead of saying "we were unable to work effectively together"?
I was terminated from my latest job (worked around a year) and the reason they gave me was because of performance issues though they wanted to remove all high paid employees in my department. As you mentioned to be positive and donot tell much about the firing process, I followed your advice during my interviews. However, the interviewer wanted to dig into it and asking more and more questions on my firing, which myself donot know about. This has been very disappointing journey for me and lost confidence. So how to get away from this situation? I know I did nothing wrong in my previous job and gave my best.
Yo, can we talk ?
Dude just be honest. the more they dig then tell them what you know
I was terminated due to performance issues and behaviour I am now stuck
I’ve responded to you before but somehow I can’t see the response anymore. You don’t need to give too many details, the job wasn’t right for you. Here I have some clear answer ideas: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
Omg That's so good, thanks for this video , I m going to be hooked up to this channel that's what I have been looking for since I have been fired. Can I reach out for any advice?
How to say it during interview when u fired due to position redundancy?
I have a big job opportunity coming up and I’m scared to always talk about how I got fired from a job by a false accusation.
Thanks
You're welcome. Good luck and keep me posted!
These are great answers, but none of them really work for me situation. I was fired from my only full-time job after 15 years. I can’t say that I’m used to something else or that from Day 1 the fit wasn’t right, because if it’s my only job I can’t be used to anything else, and if the fit wasn’t right the next question becomes, “Why did you stay for 15 years?” Any suggestions on how I can phrase my response for that? If it helps, technically I wasn’t fired, my position was eliminated as a “Reduction In Force,” but as my boss once told me, there are never any real RIF’s. I don’t know why I was fired, and to my face they told me it was nothing personal, just part of a departmental reorganization. They also said they’d give me a reference if I need one, but I prefer not to use a reference from someone who fired me if I can possibly help it.
So ... I'm supposed to tell potential employers that I got fired from my previous job? Why would I want to do that?
Lol never tell the real reason.
Say the company is Downsizing or outsourcing period.
Fired six times now black balled
I asked you acquestion on another account, I have one more. Do you recommend putting these responses in the application or leaving that as a discussion point if you are sure for a phone interview? I do not wish to "lie" on the application. Thoughts? Thanks again for the great content!
Hi there! I really wouldn't advice you leaving this written, it's always better explaining it during the interview or any other direct conversation with an employer. This isn't the easiest part of the interview to address, so trying to do so in a written form makes it even more complicated. You are very welcome by the way, thanks for your kind feedback.
There is another video where I address how to explain "why did you leave your last job" question, it might also be helpful: th-cam.com/video/Ls6-lG-YNLc/w-d-xo.html
