I will leave my firm in the end of this month due to involuntarily reasons (company counselled out a few underperformers during down times), and will soon need to face the decision of whether I should disclose that I have left the firm.
Technically speaking, on resume I will still be with the firm till month end. What makes me nervous is how to communicate with interviewers after I left the firm.
For firms that I have already been interviewing, should I proactively mention I left the firm? And for firms that I apply after I left, I would suppose that I need to be upfront that I left the firm - any other tips or options? It's quite hard to explain why I left the firm after 1 year…
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the helpful advice - really appreciate it. Just to clarify - suppose I apply to roles at the instant (or shortly after) I left the firm, am I obliged to reflect this on the resume?
Hi there, if you are not working at the firm anymore when you apply, you will have to report the correct ending period. So if you concluded your contract in June and apply in July, you will have to indicate June as the last month you worked there. Hope this helps
