What should I do if I forgot to put a job on my application
I just got a new job and I had a gap for one month and I indicated I was unemployed just to complete the form. But I forgot about a 2 week job that quit because it was not my job path or something I wanted to continue with. My question is will that raise a red flag or should I tell them. Is this something to worry about or just let it go and wait if they ask.

Well, there's nothing harmful in being truthful.
Just send an addendum mentioning your honest mistake. I don't see it will make a huge difference, but then again, you'll be fair from your side.
Think of the other side: If this comes up in the background verification, you have to anyways disclose the information, so why not do it now itself?

No. Do not worry about it especially if it was for such a short term. Let them ask as you have figured out yourself!
Even if they find out, it is unlikely they will be bothered about it!
