Do you guys, tell recruiter for the very beginning that you were laid off by your last employer or disclose this information later in the process?

I tried these in two companies (1st round with HR) and simply said:
my company had many layoffs in past two months and my role was made redundant too. The good thing is I am available right away to join the new firm.

It worked in both the companies and they said I’ll be into next round of interview. So I think you can keep it short and straight.

Hope this helps. All the best!!

What is a good interview answer for leaving a job after a few months when the real reason is that you’re sleeping with one eye open in hopes of not being on the chopping block after two rounds of massive layoffs? Company culture is at an all-time low, and it will only go down from here from what I’ve seen in the short months I’ve been there.

My confession is that as a young guy, I want us to go back to the office so I can meet driven, career minded, attractive women. So tired of being catfished and all the other BS on dating apps.

Edit: to clarify, I don't mean hitting on women at work. I would just like to meet quality women, and I don't go partying or to bars. It's very hard as someone in their 20s coming out of a pandemic to meet people.
