If I get fired will it hurt my chances of getting a job in the future?
Q. I've only worked there for a month, and I've had a part-time job the whole time, so there isn't any empty time on my resume. I suspect I am going to be fired. I am debating whether I should quit before I get fired. I have been planning on quiting, I have many applications out and I have some interviews scheduled, so it isn't a huge deal if I quit, but I would like to wait until I have another job lined up. My question is: if I get fired, will it come back to haunt me later? When I am filling out applications will I have to check the box stating that yes, I was discharged from a job? On a lot of the job applications I have filled out lately there has been a questions "Have you ever been discharged from a job?" If I am fired, won't I… [cont.]

How should you explain being fired from a last or previous job in an interview?
Q. If you were laid off, that's self explanitory: It means that either they could no longer afford you, or the project you were hired for was completed, and didn;t have anything permanent to keep you for... But when you are fired, that means they don't want you back. So how should you explain being fired from a job, if and when that ever happens to you?

A. Never use the word fired it is terminated that can mean anything. I explained why I was let go and my current boss called knowing exactly why so expected to hear the real reason. I told him the reason and told him I thought they made a mistake but it was their choice to make.
