Resume Red Flags: Unplanned Departures

Not being currently employed or having an unplanned departure is a red flag for recruiters, who believe a strong candidate would not leave a job without a new profile in hand. You can handle this by:

1. Not blaming the old company, and not highlighting their mistreatment of you.
2. Focusing on the good aspects of your tenure with them: Your learnings, new relationships and accomplishments.
