When you get fired, you will be in a No-Where kind of a state. When you get the pink slip, immediately you think of your dependents, your financial status, your future, and your social status piling up with lots of tension. You do not know what to do. You do not know whom to ask help for searching another job. You do not know how much your dependents will be shocked; you do not know what kind of respect you are going to get from your friends and the people around you. Only panic remains with you. 

During this crisis time, you need to go alone to some place and start thinking about your next step. Meanwhile, you should try to reduce your tension. At the same time you should make up your mind to not completely depend upon the help from Family, Friends and other known people. Chances are less to get the much needed help in times of crisis. Try to check up with them to get help, but do not trust completely. 

You just need to go alone and think on your own and ask suggestions as much as possible from different people. Do not take decisions; you just need to take suggestions. You need to depend on yourself in implementing the better suggestions in searching the job. If at all you’re known people help you to get out of that situation, then you should treat that as a bonus and should never forget that help until you die.

You need to think that you are having a bad time; and you need to get away from it. That's it. You also need to think that there will be problems in life many times and you just need to get away from that situation. You have to gain as much as positive energy to take next practical steps. Till you do this, you cannot take better decisions as you are in tension. 

If you think that, your known-people will help you during crisis, you need to ask yourself the following questions: 

How many times did you help people who are known closely to you? Isn’t it you had many N good and bad reasons for not helping him like: No time to help him, You don't like him internally, He stays far from you, etc.. Similarly even others will have the same kind of reasons when you landed up in crisis. 

But, There are chances of someone who is known to you (but, may not be very close to you) might come out to help you. You can think of many people (known to us for a short time) who may help us many times just like that. So, you also need to try out with people who are less known to you. They do not have anything in mind against you, they would say directly whether they can do it or not. Moreover, you should know how to acknowledge these people who come and go out of our life, even though for a short period of time . 

Parallel to these, you should also start preparing a better resume. You should re-read it over and over again to understand to ensure that you have expressed properly all your strengths and weaknesses. Once you know what is there in your resume, you need to assume yourself what kind of questions the interviewer might ask by looking at your resume, you need to write all those questions on Paper and later you can try to figure out how to answer them. 

It Doesn't matter, whether the questions are silly or complex, you just need to ask as much as questions as possible by looking at your own resume. Here, visualizing like interviewer is most important. Later you need to get answers from various sources and keep all the data ready with you. Once you do this minimum preparation, start applying with the resume blindly, wherever its possible through friends, through known people, through people with whom you have worked earlier, through news paper ads, through consultancy, by searching companies in the web site. Meanwhile, you also start studying whatever is relevant to your skill sets, which gives you some confidence. 

Once you start applying, you will get replies from the companies for sure, since you have got some kind of experience earlier. While talking in an interview, you need to talk confidently. Make sure, you never mention or never have a bad feeling about that you had been fired from the company either during interview or any time later. Since, that gives you a bad score. Even, if you couldn't make it in one company, you should never lose hope. 

You should go back home and think what mistakes you made in the interview. Sometimes, it was your problem, sometimes it was the interviewer’s problem. You never know that the interviewer might be dumb. So, go re-check about what could be the problem and once you know where the mistake lies, try correcting it and go to next interview or else ignore the dumb interviewer. You know, you just need to keep your hope alive always till u get job. 

Once you get job, your tension will be relieved a bit. Now, you will decide to work better for sure, since, you know the pain. You also will be happy that you got fired from the previous company for your own good. Most of the time, after getting fired and then getting a new job, your positive energy level will be high and you will try to be more careful in your work. 

Now, you need to ask question yourself: Why I got fired?

There are various reasons why you got fired from company, could be one or more of the following:

•     Your boss hired you without knowing the proper requirements. This is not your problem; this is silliness of your boss.

•     Your boss hired you because he didn't get the required talent in the market and he hoped that you will get better after some time but, at a later stage, they were not satisfied with your work. This is your problem. Your boss doesn’t like you. This is not your problem, it’s good to stay away from a bad boss. This typically shows that boss has used his power.

•     You boss hired you because they had some specific project for your skill set, now after project is finished or project is in a stagnant stage, they don't know what to do with you. This is your problem 50%, since you are not flexible enough to learn something new and adjust to other projects.

•     If there is any management change, and if the new management feels that there should be some changes company-wide, then they will fire some people. Most of the time cost cutting and may be they don't need so many people for what they plan to do. This is your problem, why didn't you try to be in the good ones’ list?

•     Your boss got fired and subsequently you followed the suit. This problem you are going to share with your Boss.

Do the following to escape next time to face the problem of getting fired:

Constantly study and update your skill sets. Check what is happening around you and in the market related to your domain.

"Remember, when you are in problem only your knowledge is with you and that will always help you. Doesn’t matter whether your parents, friends, and other people help you or not. So, update knowledge always, without being lazy. Knowledge travels with you always wherever you go. Feed something to it always which is valid"
