Never. Being fired is a very negative thing. You may quit, you may be laid-off, but you are not fired. If you had let go due to company mergers, reorganizations, and downsizing, it’s no big deal, you can explain it. Always say you left an employer for better opportunities.
So, the answer is simply a “No.” If they ask “Have you ever been laid-off?” You may explain:
“Yes, the company I worked was acquired by BeanCorp in west coast. BeanCorp decided to close al facilities in town. I among all of other 250 employees were laid-off.”
