    My résumé shows a gap from a layoff and some health issues. It has been a long 4 weeks. I am not sure how much to explain. What do you say in interviews?

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

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