    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a social media manager. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I have been practising in the mirror.

    I keep it to two sentences: the company cut my team, and here is what I am proud of and what I am looking for next.

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