Being fired from a job is not the end of the world, although sometimes it can feel that way.

It happens to the best of us. Regardless of how comfortable you are in your job, you should always be prepared for a situation like this.

Keep your resume/profile updated so that if you lose your job, you are prepared to begin a new job search quickly. Also, try to stay informed of job openings in your area.

How should you react once you hear the news? Here is some advice:

               Keep your composure - don’t get angry

No matter how much it hurts to hear the news, don’t lose your temper and say things that you will later regret. Handling your termination with grace is the best thing that you can do for yourself. 

                  Find out the details of your termination

Get the details of exactly why you were let go. Not only will it give you peace of mind, but you might learn what to work on to better yourself as a future employee of another company.

       Maintain a relationship with your employer if possible

Certain circumstances will not allow you to maintain any type of relationship with your former employer, but if possible, try your hardest to leave on good terms.

If you do, your former boss will be more likely to give you a good recommendation to other employers.

You also never know if your former boss will be hiring for another position in the future, and they might think of you.
