    I have been out of work for 8 months and worry about the gap. I am in Sacramento, in case local advice matters. I have done some volunteering and a course during that time. What do you say in interviews?

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

    Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.
