How do you explain being fired due to a workmens compensation issue? |
[Edit] |
Don't try. If asked why you left your previous employer, you should give a more generic answer like "your skills not being the right fit for your previous employers needs." Then don't sit there quiet waiting for the interviewer to ask what you mean, keep the flow going by explaining what your skills are that you bring to the table and how it will fit THEIR organization. Maybe end with a question for the interviewer, this will keep the flow and probably change the direction of questioning.
Answer
It might be useful to know that the correct word is not
workmens but workers. When this change was made several
decades ago, it took years and years to get people to use
the right word, and at this late date, some hirers for certain kinds
kinds of jobs may conclude that you're probably a sloppy
thinker if you get it wrong.
