[quote=Anonymous]How quickly do you need to return to the workforce? Is it immediate or “in the near future”? If the latter, see if you can complete a certificate program in your field (or a related field) while you job hunt. For example, https://www.nvcc.edu/academics/programs/data-analytics.html You will probably spend $5,000 to complete this, but: 1) it gives you access to internships 2) it reboots your resume This won’t hide the fact that you took time off (which I don’t think is a horrible thing), but it gives you something “new” on your resume and shows that your skills are current. It also buys you a year to re-enter the workforce if you go to school full time. The job market is bad right now. But if you happen to find a job before you finish this certificate, you can just slow down the progression: maybe only take one class per semester.[/quote]
