Does getting fired really matter? What “record” does it go on? My FICO score?

No, I believe companies aren’t allowed to do that. Getting fired just gives you zero leverage during interviews, and can be worrisome if you don’t have a cash pile.. and I guess eventually credit scores can be affected if you can’t pay off debt.

Sorry not trying to be facetious but unless getting fired leads to your missing your credit card pmts or other financial obligations, your FICO/TranUnion/and forgot the 3rd one should be intact.

Thanks paht-nuh

Companies usually push for voluntary resignation. Saves them a potential law suit and gets the employee a reasonable severance package.

When a company publishes a policy that says “do X by Y date or you’re fired” and you don’t do X by Y date, you didn’t resign.

It matters in the sense that if you did something really bad, the world is smaller than you think.

It doesn’t matter in the sense that there’s no real central record, and if it’s just a performance issue or whatever after you do well in the next job in a few years no one will know or care.

Lol was being sarcastic when I said “FICO”

But agreed with P1 ; everyone else just thinks there’s some mysterious record

So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android).

I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

I have not been on a project for over 3 months. Since I joined, I have been put in training. The training got extended by a month and now it's close to 4 months since I joined and without a project.

What should I do? People say that I'm lucky to get paid without doing any work, but it is stressing me out. I need the experience. The uncertainty is freaking me out, with rumours of layoffs and the certification program and all.

How do I get into a project? How long do I have to wait more?
