Getting fired can happen to the best of us. It can happen even when it's not your fault. It happens. You're not alone. Here are some tips to help you move forward after being fired from your job.
Personally: Recognize that you'll likely experience the five steps of dealing with loss: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and finally, acceptance. Realize a termination is not the worst thing that could happen. Sometimes terminations are for not being the right fit. While unemployed, start each day with a plan of something to accomplish. Keep a forward focus. With the changing job market, getting fired is more common than you may think. Make it an opportunity, not a catastrophe. Realize you've gone through other life changes and made it through. You will this time, too.
Professionally: Find out when you get your last paycheck and if you get pay for vacation or benefits. File for unemployment. Join a Job Club and Success Team. Decide whether you want to stay in the same field, make a career change or start your own business. Once you know where you want to take your career, take steps to make it happen. Commit. No job search is easy. Network. This is hard to do but you must let people know you are looking for another job.
