A: Hello. What are you doing here? B: Hi! I lost my job, so here I am at the EDD. A: That's rough. I lost my job three months ago. B: I didn't know that. Maybe you can help me apply. A: Sure, I can help. You just need some basic information about your job history. B: I have that information for the company I last worked for. A: They ask for information on all places you worked for the last 18 months. B: I can get that. What else do they ask? A: Name, residence, addresses, that kind of stuff, and most importantly, why you're not working. B: You mean if I quit, or was fired. A: Yes, and be truthful. They will call your former employers. A: Thanks. That helps a lot.
