Gaps in employment are more common than you think! 👏🏾

Life happens unexpectedly, and many of the plans we have in place for our career can be uprooted at any time! 

So whether you have a gap in employment because you were laid off, or continued education or had to take care of a sick family member…

It’s important to use that time to further develop your skills and invest in developing yourself 

It’s also important to remember that when you’re explaining resume gaps that you remain concise, confident and always bring the conversation back to your current job search 

I talk about this and so much more in my YouTube video “How To Explain Employment Gaps” where I share strategies on how to deal with employment gaps and also how to speak about common unemployment scenarios 📹
