i quit my last job because it was not full time. got an interview soon, what should i say?

Question

i didnt leave the company on great terms. but dont want to bash, nor should i, bash the company.

i wanted to say, i left the company in pursuit of full time oppurtunities utilizing my skills and experiences.

fyi: my last job before this one was a full time one but i left for the job i recently quit on to gain experience and skills. my first job i was in the mailroom and there were a lack of oppurtunities because i was told i lacked experiences.. so i left(on great terms) for the this job i quit on recently.

Answer 1

Basically balance it between the truth and what they want to hear. Talk yourself up and be confident. Show them you can handle yourself and have the potential for a leadership position.

Answer 2

Be honest about it. But also point out that you are focused on your personal growth and has been developing yourself, even when it requires you to sacrifice the benefit of a full-time employment (the mailroom job) to go part-time in order to upgrade your skills and qualifications. I think this will bring out the self-starter side of you and is completely adhering to the truth.

As for not leaving on great terms, give a concise explanation (only when asked) about the facts right before you depart. As long as no finger pointing and blaming is done, recruiters also understand that not everybody in this world is the exemplar of niceness or both sides are great it's just that thing might have just hit off wrong. It will be fine. Good luck!

Answer 3

First, never quit a job before you get another one. If you were part-time you had time to find another job.

I would say that I took that job to get more experience. You took the job under the impression that the position would become full-time. When it became apparent that this would not happen you quit so you could spend your time finding a full-time job.

Answer 4

i sat down one night and wrote down every job ive had and it came out to 27 so im pretty good at interviewing, i just get bored and quit or move on because i hate it or what not. its best to relax and be honest most of the time because your mostly just a spoke in a wheel, if youre consistent, friendly and show up on time then youve held up your end of the deal:)

Answer 5

"I liked the position because there was more responsibility but unfortunately, I could not make ends meet."
