[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am currently conducting interviews for an open IT position. I will ask about gaps in resumes. Staying home with young children isn't an issue. I would be more concerned about an unexplained gap or one that the person avoided talking about than I would about staying home for childcare reasons.[/quote] I just had an interview where they asked me to explain my SAHM gap and I said for childcare but then they wanted to know all the specifics: how many children and how old were they now? I felt like if I told them 3 or 4 they would be impressed. But the fact is that I have one. Needless to say, I didn't get the job. [/quote]
