    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a delivery driver. It has been weighing on me all week. I have been practising in the mirror. 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.
