I had a job for only a month when I resigned (while still on probation) because I realised it wasn't the job I wanted. I was misquoted by someone who knew the supervisor on the reasons why I had resigned and was subsequently accused of bad-mouthing the organisation. The supervisor got very defensive and started accusing me of little incidents during my work there, although prior to the gossip she was very friendly toward me. Now I do not want to list this job or the supervisor on job applications. Am I legally bound to do so? I live in a small town where everyone knows everyone, so the problem is compounded. I feel I have already lost out on some jobs because of this incident, but I have no proof of it. Prior to this incident I have an impeccable record job-wise and character-wise (unfortunately that was in my past in another country). You can say I have got off on the wrong foot in this country. Please advise me what I should do regarding this one-month job experience when I apply for other jobs. Thank you.
