It depends on the situation and how you were fired. If the reason for your termination was due to serious misconduct or poor job performance, it may be best to leave it off your resume. However, if you were fired for reasons beyond your control, such as company downsizing, it may be appropriate to include it on your resume and be prepared to explain the circumstances if asked about it in an interview. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide what to include on your resume and how to present your work history to potential employers.
