Don't say anything negative about yourself if you can help it lest they filter your application to the trash before even interviewing you.
I think in such situations LESS is MORE :)

All,

Please forgive me for my stupidity, but I've never been able to wrap my brain around this one.

I am filling out an application for a major corporation and on it they wish me to provide dates of unemployment for the last seven years. That I get. The part I don't get is that they wish me to provide an explanation for those periods. Explain what? Why I was unemployed? I got laid off, or the contract expired or I got fired from the previous position. Or, why I was unemployed or why I couldn't find work? I dunno. Am I to explain why a company didn't want to interview me, or hire me, or didn't get presented with my resume? This one just dumbfounds me. To me, this is just a stupid way to word something. Oh, and by the way... nobody answers the help line. Nice...

Any thoughts?

Tim B.
