    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as an operations analyst. It has been a long 6 weeks. I also do not want to seem like a risk. Do you mention numbers?

    Say it plainly and move on to what you can do. Interviewers usually move on if you do.

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