One of the most popular posts on my blog can be found under the category of Help If You’ve Been Fired. Today I had another reader leave a comment about being terminated. As a result, I wanted to post more information to assist if you find yourself out of work today.
Check out this video I found on Today Show website:
Here is a little bit of what I said to my reader today. Just some food for thought so that you can move forward. “Your termination does not have to be an issue for your next employer. It only becomes an issue, if you bring bitterness, malice, pain and depression into the interview. This is an opportunity to pursue dreams and desires you have put off for years. If that is true, than you can say “yes, I have been fired. This is what happened…, this is what I learned… and this is where I am interested in going in my career… I will make an excellent … in your organization.” And move forward.”

I really appreciated your link and information provided. As someone who was recently downsized, I wish I had done more of my prep work! I am moving forward, and looking at this as a good opportunity to find a better fit for me and for my family.
