I was fired from Apple retail 4 years ago, now I’m thinking about working for them as a SWE. Do you think that would be an issue given that tech and retail are totally two separate branches of the company?
Do you get an apple email address if you work in retail?
Yes..
Just tell them to remember what happened when Steve came back to Apple after getting fired
The HR system is most likely the same for retail and corporate functions. Depending on the reasons your former supervisor entered upon termination last time, it could come into play. Just be transparent and honest with the recruiter up front
You should still apply. No one is going to look into your background at the pre-interview/interview stage. If you are close to getting an offer that’s when you come clean to two people, the HM (during the onsite) and the recruiter. Good luck.
Wow you must be one hot prospect if you were fired from a retail role
Not fired for performance.. also retail skills don’t equal developer skills.. have you anything more judgmental to say?
What were you fired for then?
