This is another great article to help us on our interviewing skills. I’ve only had one job and have never been fired so I wouldn’t know the feeling but I can imagine it being hard to go after into a interview for a new job worried what they will ask. Great tips to not look at it negatively of being fired but explain what you have learned and not blame any anyone and most importantly be truthful.

Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) April 24, 2014 About one-fourth of US college students list government as one of their three major targeted employers, according to the 2013 Student Survey.
