    My résumé shows a gap from a layoff and some health issues. It has been weighing on me all week. I am not sure how much to explain. What do you say in interviews?

    Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.

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