left for sexual harrasment, what should i put for "reason for leaving"?

Answer 1

I would say professional differences or maybe something like that, If you say sexual harassment maybe you will have difficulties finding another job, because even though it is not your fault, they could think you are problematic. It is better to say that you lived because you have intellectual or professional differences, I think.

Answer 2

Well, that's a touchy situation. I worked at a place for 3 days and quit due to sexual harassment. Because I had only been there for 3 days, I never told my next employer that I had worked there at all.

I don't know what your situation is--how long you'd been there, how pertinent the job is to your resume. If it is a good job for your resume, you can just say what you would say regarding any other job...you wanted more security or responsibilities, etc. You don't need to tell them about the sexual harassment.

Answer 3

you should not have to leave a job for sexual harassment, you should bring this issue up to an authority and have the conflict resolved, even if it means you finding a new place of employment. at least you can take the upper hand and save some face. sexual harassment is a big issue in office jobs, and is almost always ruled in favor of the victim. you may find that it will be better for you to stay and settle the case than to run away from it, it may lead to better benefits and income if you play your cards right.

Answer 4

Sexual Harassment.

Answer 5

You don't ever put a reason for leaving not matter what...the funny thing most people dont know is...When the new employer calls the old employer...the only question they are aloud to ask by law is,
1-did the employee work there form such and such date
2-is the employee re-hireable.
the old employee is not aloud to disclose reason for leaving either.
BY LAW!
so write something fancy like, I didn't feel like there was any more room in the company to expand and learn.
The new employee will see that as a sign of motivation and dedication!

Answer 6

I had a girlfriend with this problem once. Her former manager sexually harassed her at work (it was a fast food restaurant).

Here's what I did for her. I called her now former manager and made him an offer off the record. She needs a reference to get a new job and he doesn't need a sexual harassment complaint (he was married too so he's nervous!) He gives her a glowing reference and he never hears boo from her again. Worked like a charm!

Get male friend to call the manager and discretely make the offer.

Ermmmm

How about Sexual Harassment, that way you can explain the exact reasons and the person responsible may be disciplined

Answer 8

mismanagement. details upon request in interview.
avoids putting your personal info on the app where it can be seen by others as well. no matter what you put they will ask you to be more specific during the interview. so best to keep it from nosey eyes that have no business looking at your app.

Answer 9

Say exactly what happened. Then maybe the person will get fired and you won't have to leave.
