I will need your hiring managers for your new gig... it's company policy.

Hi folks, not been around much recently.

Having finished my last contract at the end of April, I've spent 6 of the last 8 months helping support my Dad after a stroke in May.

He is now back home living independently and I have just been signed up for a new gig in Sunbury on Thames, starting early in the new year.

BOOM!

I've also been out of contract for 8 months (but due to illness).
Just wondering what you put on your CV (if anything) to explain the time gap?

Nothing on my CV but explained to any agents or clients I spoke with.

well done and good luck!

You were pregnant?

Good idea, but I'll look too much like a bloke in the interview. This tends to be the case with blokes who are blokes, like this bloke.

You were pregnant?

I was not.

I took 3 years off to travel. May have made it a bit harder to secure the first contract on my return but then I'm a fussy bugger so I'm not sure it made any difference at all.

Nothing.

You tell the 20- something agent you were fixing up the house and taking time off because you can. Clients don't tend to ask.
