    I took time out to care for a family member after working as a delivery driver. I am in Milwaukee, in case local advice matters. I am not sure how much to explain.

    A short, honest line such as 'family caregiving' is enough for most employers. They mostly want to know you are ready now.

    I was hired after a 9-month gap. The manager said the skills test mattered more than the dates.
