Webinar “Telling Your Story After A Layoff”
Learn to confidently explain your layoff, address gaps, show resilience, and answer “Why did you leave?” with clarity.
You didn’t fail. The economy shifted. Your company restructured. The funding disappeared. But in interviews, one question still looms large: “Why did you leave your last job?”
After the powerful response to Life After a Layoff, Laura Wigglesworth and Steve Jaffe return with a focused, practical session designed to help you master the most uncomfortable part of the job search: telling your layoff story with clarity, confidence, and credibility.
In this webinar, the award-winning author of “The Layoff Journey” will help you learn how to:
- Explain a layoff without sounding defensive or ashamed
- Talk about gaps productively
- Demonstrate resilience and forward momentum
- Frame what you learned — personally and professionally
We’ll share real examples of strong interview responses, common mistakes to avoid, and a simple framework you can use.
Layoffs are a response to economics, not a sign of your value. But how you tell your story is crucial to sticking the landing during job interviews.
