A few years back, being fired from a company would have been such a taboo or a social stigma that someone would have forgotten it like a bad dream and never mentioned it in any job interviews. Most recruiters would look at a previously fired candidate with suspicion and avoid hiring them due to integrity and productivity risks.
However, times are changing, and I think no job seeker should bear the brunt of their employer's often insensitive actions to derail their career prospects.
Recently highly published mass layoffs of , , , , , , and so forth have proved that the inefficiency in talent management is not industry or region specific. Mismanagement, lack of empathy and planning are common traits of most businesses when it comes to protecting their profitability.
Unfortunately, so little is done to fix this and address the root causes of these actions.
If you are a well-qualified professional who such "prestigious" brands have previously hired, and you have spent years contributing to their revenue, come out and say that you are more than someone who just got fired and needs a job.
And for all employers, you can tap into a talent pool of highly skilled individuals who might have been sacked but can help you build the next multi-billion dollar business. But do not repeat the same mistakes - hire ethically, make more affirmative business decisions, and build an equitable and inclusive work culture for your employees.
