Topic Name: White lie: How to say you are unemployed during interview?
Message Name: Touchy subject
Date Posted: 01/06/2005
Message: I've been laid off. What's the best way to explain your current unemployment status when the employer asks you what are you doing now, especially you've been unemployed for an extended period (more than 18 months)? How do you answer this potentially negative question with an upbeat and positive answer? Any suggestions? Thanks!
