Thread regarding UKG / Ultimate Kronos Group / Ultimate Software Group Inc. layoffs

What to disclose during the interview?

Are you letting recruiters or interview panels know that you were laid off or are currently unemployed?

What are your reasons for your approach?

I'm interested in hearing how others are dealing with this situation as I am thinking through the issue, not sure how to approach it...

I will be starting my initial interviews and I'm curious if there's still a deep negative perception when explaining in an interview why I am looking for a new position.

How else would you explain your unemployment? Be honest. Layoffs are common in tech.

There is absolutely no deep negative perception on our part. We're not at fault. Maybe we are, for not being their preferred region employees. Other than that, just share your achievements and good reviews.

Even the best of the best were laid off, god knows why. We have top engineers specializing in various applications all being let go.
