How do I explain a layoff in interviews? after 10 years as an IT help-desk technician

    They always ask why I left, and I freeze. There are 10 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I also do not want to seem like a risk. 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.
