Is it considered lying on a job APPLICATION if I don't include a job I got fired from after only 3 days?

Answer 1

No just don't put it down as a job experience. they won't check if they don't have a number to call.

Answer 2

It is not considering lying if you don't count it as experience on your application. However if they ask you the question "Have you ever been fired or asked to leave a job?" and you answer "no" this is obviously a lie; however if would be hard to prove that you were fired after a job of 3 days unless you work in an industry that is a "small world" and your employer may find out through the grapevine. Remember, if you risk lying on the application and get hired then you always run the risk of being fired; your employer would have the right to fire you at anytime during your employment for lying on your application.

Answer 3

Yes, it is and it give them reason to fire you for that. However, I'd probably either say I quit for some really good reason or just not put it down at all. Say you quit for personal reasons, such as the boss was being inappropriate and then if they do call that place, it would be like of course they are going to say they fired you. There is lying and then there is lying. I guess it depends on what you got fired for in the first place.

Answer 4

No. Such things happen. It may or may not have been your fault. There is no necessity to include such details in any resume. Don’t lie about it. Just don’t volunteer the information. If they ask you pointedly, lay it out. Make sure they understand that you took it as an experience to learn from. But hopefully, you don’t have to go that far. I’d give it as 90% probability that it won’t come up unless you bring it up. And the wise course for you to take would be: don’t.

Potential employers may not bother to consider the fact that you have learnt from your mistake or whatever. As far as they are concerned, any blemish you might have on your record justifies them to look for the next candidate.

There is no call for you to dig your own pit. There may be people who appreciate such honesty and are broadminded enough to give you a chance. But in this competitive world, such people are rare. And it is up to you to project yourself in the best light possible.

You needn’t have a pang of remorse. It’s acceptable for you to omit this.

Answer 5

if you are feeling immoral about it go speak up by all means, I mean be honest about this with yourself, which is more important to you having money to buy the necessities or being honest and not having a job? doesn't seem like a tough call to me, lying is lying, putting a roof over your head and food in your stomach seems an okay trade off for omitting something

Answer 6

I have omitted jobs that I was on for 3 months and as long as you don't collect unemployment or workman's compensation, I don't see how it can be detected. I have never been called on it after years. Don't leave a gap on your application. Good luck

Answer 7

Answer 9

Yes, it is lying if you omit that information from a job APPLICATION. If you don't put it on your RESUME it's not a problem. But legally speaking, it is lying when you fail to disclose this information on an APPLICATION.

Answer 10

I wouldn't think so, it's not like they say list EVERY job you have done, in fact they don't even ask anything, you voluntarily put any details you want to give. But if you don't feel like putting it, put something else as long as it's not a lie.
