If you have been fired from a job, utilise your resume, cover letter, and subsequent interviews as an opportunity to share any skills and experience from your previous employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During an interview you do not need to disclose you were fired unless absolutely critical (i.e., your potential employer is conducting a probity check). This doesn\u2019t mean you need to lie or deceive, but rather emphasize what you learnt from your previous employer. If your termination or dismissal does come up in an interview, you can use the story to tell employers about your personal growth. Explain what lessons you learned after being fired, – and what you would do differently working for the potential new employer. This will help the employer have a better understanding of how they can create an ideal work environment for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be confident in your skills and what you can bring to the job you have applied for!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
