[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's important to me is if they address the gap in their cover letter and are able to express intelligently why there is a gap and what they have done during that time that might relate to the job and/or what they have done to prepare themselves to return to work. I have absolutely no problem with a candidate who says something along these lines in their cover letter: "I spent 5 years caring for my young children. During that time, I tried to keep abreast of developments in the field, and maintained contact with former colleagues. As I prepare to return to the workforce, I have been reading x publications (pertinent to the field) and I took time last month to attend x conference."[/quote] +1 [/quote]
