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

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

    I was hired after a 6-month gap. The manager said the skills test mattered more than the dates.
