This is a serious one. Let me try to predict the outcomes here Leaving the Work Experince on your CV 1. Your prospective employer might do a background check which often includes contacting your previous employer. 2. Your prospective employer might be a result-oriented person and not bother to inquire as to why you left as long as you can demonstrate your ability to deliver Removing The Work Experience from your CV 1. Depending on how long you worked there and how old you are, you might have serious issues getting another job 2. Rather than write a conventional CV, you could make your CV super functional, stating your achievements without explicitly stating the name of the company from which you were fired. This could work in your favour...or not, its all in how you package yourself 3. If you have less than 2 years with the company, you could remove it from your CV and start fresh. If you have a wealth of experience, one option is to STOP job hunting and start selling solutions. I am sure you must have built a network; reach out to the folks in your network and start solving their problems. Things you should not do 1. Do NOT lie 2. Do NOT lie Cheers 1 Like |

Sorry for not replying on time. I was fired because of the job done by one of my associates and it resulted to the death (electric shock) of another staff. In my query, I was said to have poorly supervised a job and working without work permits. Then in the dismissal letter, it was stated I was culpable for serious misconduct. freemon50: |

refreshrate: Boss, even in my former place of work ,i have colleagues that were wrongfully dismissed this led to a series of law suits whilst some were offered their jobs back .My asking him for the reason is to advise him further or do u believe one should just go ahead and give him advise as to beefing up his cv without having an idea as to his background or what necessitated the dismissal? Have u bothered to even read his response on that? Now tell me if such an unfortunate occurence doesnt need a strategic response This is a public forum,we learn or educate others 2 Likes |

arabianights: You're watching two or maybe even 3 movies at once. If he has a court issue or whatever further assumptions you've decided to include to the issue on your own, does this concern the new employer? OP is not fighting for his job back as painted in your scenario he's looking to move on with his life. Try and stick to the script please. So his new employer writes the former and you expect them to do what? begin to explain that he was dismissed wrongly and in fact they are in court but please give him the job till we are found guilty then we will remploy him? |

refreshrate: if it was an accident then why remove it from his CV? if it was error of judgment from his part, then also, why remove it? everybody CAN make a mistake, and so long as they learn from it, its all good. if the person is remorseful, eager to show that they can move on and improve from that accident, then so be it. it is the negative character/traits in a prospective new employee that i would certainly run from. |

imagodei:Quite unfortunate.. Competency is a serious issue in some companies esp multinationals, HSE too... I will say you do not remove the experience from your CV especially if you had many years with them.. During your next job interview; Say the truth when asked why you left your previous work, tell them how painful and regretful the experience is, emphasise on how you ve improved or learnt from the experience. . If possible, do a kinda training that's geared towards preventing the kind of mistake you made, this will be a solid back up... People get fired but they still get jobs.. Your company did what they should have done because no company will leave an employee who caused a death in their company but it may not mean you're entirely bad or incompetent. ... Generally, package yourself well and be confident... All the best ![]() Rip to your dead colleague ![]() Meanyl, learn to wait for work permit before embarking on a job next time, don't cut corners no matter how urgent the job is to avoid accidents like this. And ur boss will deny you if anything happens. .. 5 Likes |

refreshrate: ps dont misunderstand what i wrote: there is nothing wrong with making a mistake, everybody does at one point in their lives, its the nature of that mistake that matters. when you lie/cheat/steal and get caught, then the problem is not the fact that you got caught, the problem is your CHARACTER, and these issues will happen again and again. but if this was an unfortunate accident, then this might never happen again (unless the employee is very unlucky) btw, if you will never employ someone that got fired then here is food for thought: - Steve Jobs was once fired from Apple and only came back to the company 10yrs later, wouldnt you have employed this genius?! - Walt Disney was fired from his earlier job because he "supposedly" lacked imagination. - Oprah Winfrey was once fired from her job as a television reporter because she was supposedly "unfit for TV" - Soichiro Honda was actually turned down from a job as an engineer at Toyota before he created his own company HONDA. - Harland David Sanders (founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken) was going around every restaurants trying to sell his famous chicken recipe and was turned down 1009 times before one restaurant accepted it. so just because someone may be unfit to one company, doesnt automatically mean he will be unfit for yours. refreshrate: if it was an accident then NO it is not due to that persons character... now if he was drunk on the job then thats a different matter entirely! 2 Likes |

MRBrownJ: All these people you mentioned i cant find a Nigerian in the list thats one No one in the list got dismissed for anything remotely as serious as what OP is talking about. These are not even issues enough to be called 'issues'. No stealing or fraud example or loss of life? Sorry o but the examples stated are for motivational books not this scenario By the way Everybody Lies, but then everyone is innocent until proven otherwise. Why would you want to hang youself? Two cvs in front of you, one with the OPs story another without any such story in fact the other guy is changing jobs because he wants a more challenging role sincerely, who would you choose? |
