Don't list it. It was only for a month. Just make up a good excuse for what you were doing that month like traveling or what ever it is you want to say.

The answer is somewhat difficult without additional information, what type of job it was, how old you are, and your current skills and education. If a future employer has no contacts with the previous employer it seems very unlikely that the future employer will have the opportunity to find out about the previous job. One way to develop a good work history is to volunteer and list your volunteer activities as your history. Be prepared for the question of what you were doing during that time period. I would not suggest feeling sad. The situation is best used as a learning experience for you to grow and become a better person. Keep in mind that your area may have job assistance agencies both public and private. Also, if you are having difficulties dealing with life or emotions... everyone has difficulties at some point in their life... your community likely has a community-based counseling service that can be located using your phone book or a web-search. Good luck and good fortune to you!

Hi don't worry. It happens some times.
No need to feel sad about it, but just think of the reasons why you got fired. Learn the lessons.
Nothing wrong in mentioning in your resume. It shows your honesty and your new employer will like the genuineness.
If you don't mention in resume, new employer cannot find it unless he knows you already.

It's a pain when that happens, you need to learn from the experience and make sure it doesn't happen again.
I don't list all my employers on my resume, cause I don't even want to think about the place. Didn't cause me any problems

list it. Whether you were fired or quit on your own, you still gained experience by being there... Each job is a learning experience for the next one... Think about why you were fired and try to correct that aspect of your work habits...

Congats! You're now a full fledged working adult. It happens to everyone. I got fired from my first real "career" job that I hated and wanted to leave. I still cried anyway because they fired me. I cried right in the office when he told me. It's funny now, but it wasn't then.
You'll survive. This will help you to focus on the work you really want to do. good luck!

your concern needs to be why did you get fired and do you want to get fired from the next job. look inside yourself. do you really want to work?
