    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a project coordinator. I am in Jacksonville, in case local advice matters. I do not want to blame the company. 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.

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