Explaining a gap after caregiving or layoff

    My résumé shows a gap from a layoff and some health issues. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I am nervous about being filtered out. 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.
