[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did all the successful job seekers here explain the gap on their resume when they first approached companies? [/quote] +1 I'd like to know, too.[/quote] For me - honesty. I told them I had chosen to stay home and focus on my family for a few years.[/quote] Me too. It wasn't a big deal for me because it was a part time work at home job. First job I interviewed for after being out a year, and I got it. I remember being so shell shocked because all I intended to do was test the waters. It was so perfect so I took it. I was working for 12 years before sahm for one. The field was Ed Research. Responsibilities were much less than before and I took a 30% pay cut with no benefits. But the many perks of working from home with a flex schedule were totally worth it. [/quote]
