before getting laid off i was interviewing so they knew i was employed. mid way through the interviews i lost my job. i never told them. my strategy was that if they offer me the job i tell them i have 1 month notice. by the time you signed the paperwork its sort of a bit late for them to rescind plus your visa processing will be done through a PRO so they wont look at your actual cancellation date or mention it to higher ups.

Yes never tell you have been redundant, you just don’t want the conversation to focus there.

Say standard notice period 30 days, but as you are not staffed right now you might be able to negotiate less.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
