1. Do I put my new job on my resume that lasted for less than a month?

Not unless you can find a compelling reason to...

2. How do I explain what happened when I go for an interview?

If you are forced to:

"I left my former position for a promised job that fell through at the last minute. My former company also had a reverse in finances and were unable to hire me back."

In our area (Seattle), there have been so many lay-offs that most people don't even ask.
