    They always ask why I left, and I freeze. There are 16 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I also do not want to seem like a risk. Do you mention numbers?

    If a company has been in the news for layoffs, you can mention that. Often the interviewer already knows.

    Say it plainly and move on to what you can do. Interviewers usually move on if you do.
