I layoff from my job in July. I am taking job preparation now and want to join a new company around January or February. Is the 6-month job gap on the CV will be an issue? YOE: 1 year TC: 0 now #tech #softwareengineer
nowadays companies have special positions for people with job gaps. I saw something called as second innings (or something of that sort) on Google's (or Microsoft's, not sure) career page. So, you should be perfectly fine.
I had a career gap of 3 years. And after 3 years of career gap, I entered into Tech.
Are you insulting the lack of technology at Gap? Why did you stay so long then?
Absolutely not insulting. I am telling OP that gap is not a blocker to get another job. He can even change career path after a gap as I did.
I was in the same scenario in 2019 for 5 months but had 8 YOE back then - with 1 YOE maybe a little 🤷🏻
You’d be fine, I quit a job during the peak of Covid and had a 9 month gap. Companies didn’t care. There’s too many personal reasons for why there could be a gap and also I could be lying about my reason so maybe that’s why they don’t ask 🤔. With all the recession talk and layoffs, your gap would look extra normal.
