    I took time out to care for a family member after working as a project coordinator. There are 17 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I am not sure how much to explain. How did you handle it on your résumé?

    I listed the volunteering and course under the same dates and kept the explanation to a sentence in the cover letter.
