On a job APPLICATION, not resume, do I need to list a job I only worked at for 3 days before getting fired?

Answer 1

I never do. You are just red flagging your application for failure. It was just a few days. Nobody is going to care if they find out later.

Answer 2

Did you get a 1099 for the three days? If so then you best note it on your application...but do it under "Other"...as a misc add on. You don't need to say you were fired or say anything if it's listed under "other"....don't mention you were fired. I assure you they don't check with employers if you worked under one year there...except if all you have on your resume or application are all 3 month jobs.

Answer 3

I never have and have most always landed the job I applyed for. I think its point less cuz where I came from jobs were a dime a dozen u could drop one and get hired the next day in my home town in MD. I had like 3 in one month one time. Id say no.. .theres no way they could find out where u worked before really with out much reasearch, and if they ask just say Oh I forgot, I had a really bad eexperience there any how I much rather not remember it!

Answer 4

No. As a general rule of thumb only list jobs you have retained for six months or more. Trust me, I've applied for jobs that required a thorough background check and I've never had a problem.

Answer 5

Definitely OMIT it. It will only send up a red flat, which you don't need when applying for a job. In fact, just try and forget it even occurred.
