Default Quit and Interviewing

Really glad to have found this forum in my time of need

Currently, I am serving my notice period and also attending interviews, which are going quite well. I might actually get an offer!!!

However, so far, the issue of my employment status has not been brought up, except that I have put down the notice period on the application form.

Of course, if the interviewer were to ask then I would have to come clean (I was forced to resign). Otherwise, I would prefer to keep mum about it.

Not quite sure if this is right thing to do, in terms of ethics and chance of securing the next job. Any advice?

notice period put 2 weeks or 2 days lor. if they ask why, you can say already resigned. nothing more nothing less. but they can check up reason for leaving with the HR. or in other words just say "terminated employment at my own will".

Not sure what is "right" but telling them you were terminated may open a can of worms...

After that the rest of the interview will feel like an interrogation.
