Ask Stacy Blackman

So on my way out of dodge I burnt a bunch of bridges with upper managment at my last job. It felt good at the time to speak my mind but prolly not so wise in retrospect.

I gave them my two weeks notice but before the two weeks were up they asked me to leave. Still, my former direct supervisor and a number of peers are willing to write recommendations on my behalf, though my former direct supervisor might not be as enthusiastic as he would like because he still works there.

How should I approach this in the application? Specifically, when a B-school is verifying your info with former employers, what, if anything, do they ask for beyond confirming dates and salary? I can fully defend myself, but I'd just as soon not have to deal with it if I don't have to because oftentimes, the appearance of impropriety is fatal.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
