The short answer
Update your recent evidence, identify transferable tasks and plan a sustainable search. Use accurate language about the role ending without treating it as a personal failure.
Try this next
Prepare a concise explanation and a refreshed achievement list.
Work through the task using your own situation. Note what you can already demonstrate and what you still need to check. If an instruction in the vacancy or your workplace changes the approach, use that instruction.
A practical example
Explain that the position was removed, then describe what your operations experience can contribute next.
This is an illustration, not a claim about your experience. Replace it with an example you can support, and explain the details in your own words.
Use a clear next step
Treat each discovery as information to check. A recommendation or listing is not a job offer. Compare the work with your needs and use official employer channels when something important is uncertain.
- Check the role and employer details.
- Write down an uncertainty that affects your decision.
- Record the next action instead of repeatedly browsing.
