Explaining a layoff without sounding bitter after 6 years as a recruiter

    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a recruiter. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I have been practising in the mirror. Do they ask follow-ups?

    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.
