Sacked from job
Discussion
Today I lost my job which came as a bit of shock. I was dragged into a meeting and told the reasons which I don t really agree but hey go I hate the place so didn t really care.
My question, now that I am on the job market constantly trying to secure something else to plug the unemployment gap will my new employer find out from my old employer that I was sacked ?
I m not going to disclose it as they it’ll make it hard for me to get any job. My understanding it is just a standard reference these days - timescale and job title ?

It depends. A reference has to be factual, so they could write in one that you were sacked, because you were. Most companies won't, they will confirm dates worked and job title.
Apply for other jobs. If asked why you left your last place have a canned answer about it wasn't for you etc, nothing negative. Chance it.

Thanks for the response. Good plan and I will certainly chance it. Apply for other jobs. If asked why you left your last place have a canned answer about it wasn't for you etc, nothing negative. Chance it.

That was 5 years ago and I have moved on from that. I’ve changed a lot since then and have grown up. I was sacked for gross misconduct today. Protest , or did your boss find out how you d stitched up a car trader ?
