How to Explain Why You Left Your Last Job, with Heather Joy

Check out the podcast on Macslist here: (https://www.macslist.org/?post_type=podcasts&p=15383&preview=true)  You’ve been fired or laid off, or perhaps you took time off for personal reasons. How much of that information do you have to share in an interview for a new job? Not much, says Find Your Dream Job guest Heather Joy. You can share the main point - you were laid off or took time to care for a family member - but anymore than that isn’t necessary. Heather cautions that if an interviewer continues to dig for more than that, it’s a red flag. She shares strategies for moving the conversation along to what you have to offer and how you can fill the need they have.
