Remember: if you get the job, the person interviewing you may one day be your previous boss. The last thing they want is to hire someone who they know is going to badmouth them some day. Instead of focusing on any negative incident, try to think about any positive thing you learned from your previous boss or a way that you say him positively impact things at work.

"I have learned a lot over the years. I would like to think that I have learned lessons from my previous employers. I had one boss who was one of the most giving people and I learned the feeling of being able to give to others. I also worked with another employer who was very professional and 'matter of fact.' I learned from him how to prioritize my day and work efficiently."

"A previous boss of mine was very tender-hearted but also very professional. She handled any confrontation, whether it was amongst employees or with a disgruntled patient or family member, with such calm and poise. I learned from her how to calmly and objectively handle situations involving confrontation that then resulted in a positive outcome."
