Just be honest about it. We're all human and things like that can happen in life. You might think of a concise way of explaining it just so when you're asked you're ready to deal with it.

Keep it brief and to the point when you explain the gap. Next, talk about how you started to prepare when you were ready to reenter your career. Also, my thoughts to you, I had to take a step back to help care for a family member, and it’s a lot.

Not every company cares about a gap on the resume as long as you can show your relevant work compared to the job, but if they ask, be honest, be human, and show them your strength more than anything.

Exactly as you've done here. This is the most valid reason you'll ever find for an employment gap. Any company that would penalize you for this is not one you want to work for. Good on you for being there for your family.

If they ask, just give a brief overview of what happened. These things happen and it’s totally valid to have a gap for those reasons.

Tips for my first defense trial? Med mal/wrongful death case. I’ll be examining our two medical experts and crossing many of Plaintiff’s. I’m a 6-year associate trying it with a partner who is retiring this year and having me do much of the heavy lifting. Any general advice would be appreciated, doesn’t have to be specific to this type of case.

90 Days notice period has 2 phases.

Initial phase - Candidates struggling to get interview calls.

Ending phase - Companies struggling to match a higher offer.

30 days notice period can really solve everyone's struggle.

Trying to avoid paying an accountant, can I actually write off home office space/mileage if I was just permalancing for 3 months last year? Shouldn’t the 7 months of W2 take care of this 1099 shit?

Head of Strategy, I remember you mentioned you’ve been involved in this space on the back-end for awhile. What are your thoughts on the 3 main characters talked about in this video? Are they the rothchilds/soros of crypto?
