    I took time out to care for a family member after working as a copywriter. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I am nervous about being filtered out. What do you say in interviews?

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

    Keep your skills fresh and mention anything recent. It shows momentum.
