Although they have the reputation, I can't say because they are money hungery slave drivers who don't care about their employees or customers.

Also, on my resume do I put I worked there from "this date to present" or is it "this date to this date"?

Because of potential liability, most employers today will not divulge any information regarding the termination of employment. If your prospective new employer contacts them, chances are the only answer will be that you worked for them from (date) to (date).

Simply state that you saw little or no opportunity for advancement or growth with that company, and felt the need to go where you could better reach your potential.

It happens to everyone. It is always for the best and gives you the opportunity to find a job you like.

Do not bring it up unless it comes up in the interview.

When it does come up show no anger or bitterness. Spin it in a positive way,,,,,,such as:

"we had different views of management styles" The interviewer will ask you explain. Keep your answer short positive, no bitterness, no personal attacks.

"I had a problem being creative under their pressure" Again spit it positively.

Probably the interviewer has been fired too and will understand.
Believe me, the interviewer has already heard a lot of negativity and that is not what they are looking for.

You can turn this around but just show no bitterness and show them what a positive opportunity this is for you.

Or become self employed.

I dint know what kind of job you got fired from but my next job interview use them as a reference.If they ask you why you got fired them the truth do not lie because if you lie on the application and to who ever interview you on your next job and they find out you will be looking for another job,then you can add that to your resume to . I would put on the resume or application from date hire and to termination date

This fairly relies upon on what you obtain fired for. yet you could continually tell them that you and your former company at the same time got here to the decision that it might want to be good that you'll pursue extra rewarding occupation possibilities. tell them the shortcoming of progression possibilities became an situation and the point of negativity on the job became insufferable and that you at the on the spot are looking for for a position the position you would receive a danger to strengthen professionally and take care of a tremendous attitude :)

Most employers hate it when you talk unfavorabily about past employers. Also most past employers usually just say the dates you worked there and nothing else to avoid law suits. Just say you left mutually because you felt the company wasn't where you wanted to make a career. Why waste each others time.

Just indicate that there was a corporate restructuring and that your employment was terminated. If your prior company spills the beans and says you were fired for something, you can technically sue them.
