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 production planner. I am in Portland, in case local advice matters. I have been practising in the mirror.

    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.
