Interned at a midsize private company for about 10 months, mainly doing tasks in Excel. My boss asked if I was available over the summer and I said yes. They pitched a new and very complicated project requiring very technical skills. The estimated completion time was 2 years. I said I would require an offer of full time employment as I was uncomfortable working on a large project in a temporary capacity. I was then fired the next day for “gross insubordination due to threat of withholding work”.
How do I address this in future interviews? It will come up on a background check for sure.
