How do I handle a long gap on my résumé? - first time posting

    My résumé shows a gap from a layoff and some health issues. There are 17 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I am not sure how much to explain. Did anyone get past it?

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

    I was hired after a 10-month gap. The manager said the skills test mattered more than the dates.
