The interviewer wants to know if you will fit with the company culture. They want to know if you were fired or let go or if you gave notice. Be honest, as the interviewer will call your former supervisor for a reference. If you were fired, provide the reason and explain what you learned from that experience. If you were let go or gave notice, describe the situation and end on a positive note.

Whatever the reason for leaving your last job, be sure to avoid speaking negatively about the job, your supervisor, or your coworkers. When you speak poorly of people, it shows the interviewer that you have no problem talking behind people's backs, and you may be challenging to work with, which is not the type of employee they want to hire.

"I left my last job because of budget cuts. The company laid off 30 of the most recently hired employees, and I was one of them. I had been there for six months and enjoyed working for the company. When I left, my supervisor gave me a letter of recommendation and highly recommended me as a Drywall Installer."
