I was pretty direct at my last interview about being in the job market due to a layoff. It comes up since I frequently get asked about why I’m looking for a position. At the same time, most folks in my industry have a mortgage, a car payment, kids, or all of the above. In general: they get that I’m trying to avoid going broke, without having to go into details.
I frequently get asked about why I’m looking for a position
The real question is why are they looking to hire? What happened to the last person that held the position? Employers often get confused when this question gets reversed onto them
