    I have been out of work for 11 months and worry about the gap. I am not sure how much to explain. 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.
