Job application asking if I've ever been fired before. Do I tell them the truth?

Wait 5 sec.

Hi all, I worked for a local hospital about 8 years ago as a scribe. I was terminated shortly after training because I wasn't a good fit. I've worked several healthcare jobs since then and just got accepted into Nursing school. The hospital that originally fired me was bought out by a massive corporation and is now the biggest hospital system in my region. I know that the typical advice is to lie, but it seems risky and unethical for healthcare. I've been putting it on my application (that I was fired for not being a good fit) and have yet to hear back yet. Any advice? Any hospital HR or recruiters that can chime in?   submitted by   /u/Firm_Condition_4385 [link]   [comments]
