How should I answer when asked why I was fired from my last job during an interview?

Be honest, but as brief as possible, with an emphasis on learning about how to improve. Example: "I was let go for dropping the ball on the customer account, however since then I have taken a course in time management and have reorganized my personal life to ensure that something like that never happens again." Or, "I had an interpersonal conflict with my boss. Since then I have grown as a person through reading (anything by Tony Robbins) and have taken personal responsibility for my actions and can say I will not have those kinds of problems again"

Tell the truth, There is no reason to lie. Most employers will understand an not hold it against you.

Honest with what really transpired

First ask yourself why you were fired. Take ownership of any issues you brought to the relationship. Be candid and honest with yourself and the potential employer, or risk a repeat.

Truthfully, with a logical reason rather than excuse. This should be accompanied by the lesson learned.

You can always say there was a difference of opinion, but if it wasn’t too bad, honesty is always best

be as truthful as you can. It's very important NOT to leave anything out, cause THEY will check on it.NOT if it's something that's small, they WILL OVERLOOK IT, cause SOME don't want to know EVERY LITTLE DETAIL, but on the other hand, if it's some BIG it could be a RED FLAG to them

With the truth as best as possible...I was a bad fit, The hours were not as stated, whatever you need to say to direct the firing to the actions of the employer, and not you

Employers should’t be asking that. They can ask why did you leave.

Be truthful about it. Stress what you have learned from it.

There are times when a career reaches a turning point. That time came for me and the question was to either put in my notice or to get fired. 6 months ago I recognized issues within the organization that were affecting the overall growth of the sales team. At that point my options were to create an exit strategy and quit or be a voice to help the others. I chose to be the voice and it ended up costing my job.

Honestly. Most times it is a personality issue and making that match is just as important as the job itself.

If you were fired from your last position and you are asked about it. Be honest. Don't push the blame, take ownership and tell them how you have grown from the experience.
