I think it really depends on how much employment history you have. If you have been working for several years I would probably not include a 2 week employment period (unless it showed experience relative to the job you are seeking). However, if you have limited work experience it may be better to leave this two week employment on your resume. Good Luck

When I review resumes, I do ask about short employment times. However, depending on the reason you left, it could be a good thing. I hired a manager who is doing excellent for us who worked at Wendy's for a week. He told me the good things and the bad things about it, and explained why he was still looking for something else. The issues he had there were understandable, and I knew that we wouldn't do the same things to him.
If you were fired after two weeks, it may not be a bad idea to remove it. I can't say that this is the most honest thing, but if you have three better, more applicable jobs to include, you should do so. If you put three great positions on your resume, they should probably be more than satisfied with that. I doubt they would even ask about any other jobs.

I would delete it. I read a lot of resumes and I certainly don't remember each one.
If a potential employer happens to see the change and asks you about it you can simply explain that you considered that 2 week employment irrelevant to the position you're currently seeking.

Delete it.
Any company that had your old resume with the two-week stint on it tossed it into the trash when they didn't hire you. In the very unlikely event someone remembers the old resume, just tell them you deleted it because you felt that a job you held for two weeks does not count as a part of your career.

How many people have actually looked at your previous resume? By deleting it, you can always send the new one to the NEW prospective employers.

If you have an opportunity to improve, update your resume - do so.
Recruiters do not memorize resumes, they look at them until the find a reason to drop them - then they are forgotten.
If you send another one to the same firm, you can say that they have an old copy, please replace it with this updated version for future review.

Delete the two week job. They couldn't give enough work history on you to matter. Good luck!
