A family member was recently laid off and the company (pre-ipo) said publicly that all layoffs were due to performance though this was not the case for my family member and a lot of senior (higher paid) employees were cut from her team.
​
For my family member and those in similar situations, how would you recommend they address this layoff in hiring interviews to avoid getting low-balled by prospective employers?
