I left my last position on Wednesday without notice... It was a super toxic work environment and several of us walked out. How should I answer the question about why I left my last position in upcoming interviews?

if asked, say why you left. practice explaining it in a way that doesnt come off as complaining. or just say you were unhappy with the management.

I left because it was super toxic …

No one tells that you left without notice. Most companies are smart enough to only give out job title, start date, and end date.

Am a phlebotomist and was only offered 2.5k at parkway Pantai when my previous company offered 3k. What's more is during the interview I had already informed that I wasn't looking for a raise beyond 3k and that I would appreciate them just paying my last drawn. Still no word from them.

I have a resume question!

I have 10 plus years of sales experience and 7 in an AE senior AE role however, when applying to positions that I know I am more than qualified for my resume is getting bot rejected before it even gets viewed. I am not sure why other than I do not have my b.a as I decided to pursue sales full time while in college and did not finish. This has not stopped me from getting interviews before , any ideas on how to get around the bots?
