Update: Trans Coworker Stealing Breast Milk
To those who’ve quit their jobs and took a break due to burnout (i.e., not laid off), how did you explain the gap to future employers during interviews? Did you do anything during your break? I’m thinking of doing some consulting/contracting work while figuring things out.
People do sabbaticals all the time. Just tell them you took a break for personal reasons and to develop yourself.
You only need to explain if the gap is years. No one cares about months of gap, particularly given the pandemic situation
If you put that you were consulting / contracting then you wouldn’t have a gap on your resume
How much is th career break duration? I just tell them I took leave for health and personal reasons.
I had a break of 2+ months
I’m thinking 3-6 months
