Say you were “moving on” or “looking for greater opportunities” or something like that. I makes you sound ambitious.

What should I say the reason is that I left a job?

Question by Misti J: What should I say the reason is that I left a job?
Do you think it’s ok to say I left a job because I became a manager too quickly and felt that I needed more experience? When I first started with the company they were slow and it was easy for me to learn as a new manager but suddenly they became really big and I felt too under-qualified to be a manager there. I spoke to my boss and he offered to put me in a lower position but I felt weird and decided to leave. do you think I should change the reason why I left? What could I say?

I don’t suggest you say the exact truth. A company may assume you cannot take on a challenge and would rather quit then to put an effort. I understand why you left but most companies will see that excuse as a sign of weakness. Next time you apply for a job or go to an interview and an employer askes you why you left your last job, I suggest you tell them you wanted a more challenging position. Let’s just hope you put a two week notice before you left your previous job because if your new potential employer tries to call the previous one, then they might say something negative about the fact that you left so suddenly. Good luck.
