How to Explain Employment Gaps on Your Resume


Listen Later

This week, Jeff and I are tackling one of the biggest causes of job searching stress: employment gaps. 

We want you to know that having a gap is normal and okay, and it's not the massive disadvantage you might think it is. 

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why a pattern of gaps is the real red flag
  • How long you can be unemployed without needing an explanation
  • How to structure your resume to explain or hide your gap
  • Creative ways to fill your resume gap to get hired
  • A simple, intentional script for explaining your gap in an interview

Listen in to help us, help you give yourself the best chance of landing your Next Job… NOW :)
