    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a sales associate. I do not want to blame the company. Do they ask follow-ups?

    Practise it out loud with a friend. Mine felt natural after the third try.

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