QUESTION 25 OF 30

Have you ever been fired from a security-related job?

If you have ever experienced job termination, you know that this is a highly dreaded interview question. BUT! There is no need to freak out when you have a very professional answer memorized and ready to go. Being fired happens to the best of us and often for situations that are out of our control. The only way to answer a question like this is to own up to it and explain the situation in brief. Finish up your response by highlighting what you learned.

"Earlier in my career, I was let go for being late to work. I took ownership of my actions, and although it was a frustrating situation, I certainly learned a lesson. Now, I am at least five minutes early for everything!"

"I am thankful for having never experienced a termination. With that said, if I am not performing up to my employers' standards, I would appreciate a frank conversation so that I have the opportunity to adjust my approach and better meet expectations."
