The Resume Gap!

When I lost my job in late fall of 2021, a flood of pressing concerns overwhelmed me: How would I manage my finances? What would I tell my friends and family? How could I explain this gap to recruiters and on my resume? The vulnerability I felt during my career transition was palpable.

I navigated this challenging time with the expertise of a coach. Alongside of her strategic support, I leaned on a trusted resource for reading: Harvard Business Review. The credible, sound advice resonated with me, providing realistic, sensible insights that were impactful. It's a source I continue to rely on to this day.

One recent article caught my attention - "How to Address a Resume Gap When Switching Careers" by Rebecca Knight, April 2024. This article tackles the question of effectively addressing resume gaps, offering expert advice on how to mitigate periods of traditional unemployment.

It also talks about the role of networking in career development. And how to keep that motivational mindset!
