When applying for a license, the level of detail required about your employment history may depend on the specific instructions or guidelines provided by the licensing authority. Generally, it is advisable to accurately represent your employment history to avoid any potential issues with misrepresentation or dishonesty that could affect your application. Short-term employment can be significant depending on the nature of the work or the relevance to the license you are applying for. If the application does not explicitly require disclosure of very short-term positions, and if these jobs did not contribute significantly to your professional experience or skill set, it may be acceptable to omit them.
However, it is important to review the application requirements carefully and consider any ethical obligations to fully disclose your work history. Should the license relate directly to the field involving those short stints, it might be beneficial to include them. If in doubt, seek clarification from the licensing body or consult with a legal or licensing expert. Always prioritize transparency and accuracy in formal applications to maintain professionalism and integrity.
