How to Answer the Severance Question in Interviews

Getting laid off is tough, but the interview question 'Why did you leave your last job?' can be even tougher — especially when a severance and a non-disparagement agreement are involved. In this episode of The Layoff Podcast, Lucas and Luna break down how to handle the severance question in interviews without violating your legal agreement. They cover the three-part honesty strategy, why you should never mention the severance itself, how to practice your script, and what to do if an interviewer pushes for details you can't share. Plus, they share real examples of phrasing that works — and one big mistake that cost a candidate a job offer. If you're job hunting after a layoff, this episode gives you a concrete framework for walking into any interview with confidence. #Severance #JobLoss #CareerAdvice #InterviewTips #JobSearch #NonDisparagement #SeveranceAgreement #Layoff #Termination #BouncingBack #Careers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LayoffPodcast #InterviewStrategy #HonestyInInterviews #CareerCoaching #JobHunting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
