How do I explain a layoff in interviews? - 9 months and counting

    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a procurement assistant. It has been weighing on me all week. 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.

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
