[quote=Anonymous]Restructure your resume so it's functional rather than historical or whatever the proper terms are. Functional resumes will focus on your relevant experience in specific fields over time, not just your last job. In that case, you can probably safely omit your last job. I wouldn't lie, but I also don't know how you would approach this. Most reasonable people understand that sometimes work places are just not good fits, and it's not as much a judgement against you as it is a judgement on the situation. I think we've all worked places where our bosses made us feel like $hit and worthless, I don't put those people down as my reference. I usually choose their boss since I'm on good terms with them, or someone else. Can you maybe list that job but put someone else as your reference? Keep in mind, some places don't even call your references. [/quote]
