    They always ask why I left, and I freeze. I also do not want to seem like a risk. Do you mention numbers?

    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.

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