Prepare To Discuss Gaps In Your Resume

Next » « Previous

5/22

If you are asked about gaps in your resume, swivel. By "swivel," we mean to acknowledge what is being said, and then change the subject - in this case to the positive. Do not lie. On the other hand, you do not need to tell the full story. For instance:

  • "I was dealing with a family issue that is resolved now, and I am thrilled to discuss how my management skills can build the team and grow your business." 
  • "I realized that what I was doing didn't fulfill me so I took a step back to think about what would make me happy and I think my tech background would really be an asset not just for this role but for the company as a whole."

Practice swiveling in front of the mirror. Then practice with a family member or friend.
