    I took time out to care for a family member after working as an accountant. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I have done some volunteering and a course during that time. What do you say in interviews?

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

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