Started a job on probation and realized in the first two weeks it is not a good fit. Is leaving during probation seen as a red flag when applying elsewhere?

Cut your losses while it’s still early. I would leave it off and not bring it up when applying elsewhere.

I think I definitely will! Not worth it in my opinion now I’ve thought about it!

It’s better to leave early than to wait. You can bypass putting it in your resume and never talk about it. That way future employers wouldn’t even know or have a need to ask about it. Staying there any longer would be time wasted

For definite! Good idea as I don’t think it would look too good!
