Anybody filed for unemployment with reason- terminated for performance. What was the procedure like? Do they interview you? I could have easily provided reason as laid off, but, didn’t want to give false info as the reason in my termination was performance, according to my termination letter. Questions that could be asked are: why were you terminated, were you given warning, when were you given warning , how long have you been performing this job, have you don’t this kind of job before.

Why were you terminated: I was told that I made the Bottom 5%
Were you warned: No
When were you warned: Not applicable.
If you were fired because you could not do the job, what job were you doing before: corporate
How long did you work at the job: 5 years
Have you even done this kind of work before: Not before the 5 years.

These are some of the questions and my answers. Anything standing out as a cause for getting denied unemployment benefits?

Correct

I thought that employers will be contacted to validate reason for unemployment and if it’s not valid (e.g. termination), you’ll have to pay back any benefits. It’s because employers have to pay different tax premiums for unemployment so it’s in their interest to contest invalid claims.

You will get benefits if you a) did not quit on your own accord and b) were not fired for misconduct/cause.
