For me, I feel that anything below 6 months - 1 year period is not worth mentioning unless you're doing an internship.

Also, I'm sure that your employer will definitely ask you about your previous job if you include it in your CV regardless. Be tactful about this and craft a reasonable reasoning like looking for better challenges and etc. Don't ever talk about anything along the lines of higher pay or you can't cope in your previous job.

Good luck!
Thanks for replying! No penalty, just need serve 1month notice. I will only look out for other roles unless if I don't like the job itself (before contract ends). And I have reasonable reasons to tackle future potential employer questions if they were to ask me. Meanwhile just have to work at least 3months first before making any decision.
