I have a great PM offer that’s hybrid 2-3x a week and will probably become fully onsite later. I’m interested in remote jobs now (because of personal situation) and still have a few companies I’m interviewing now.

I’m unemployed for 6 months, financially fine but I’m worried that the resume gap is getting bigger

Would it be a bad idea to take this offer now, keep interviewing and jump ship once I get the remote job in 1-2 months?

Nope. So long as you aren't a serial jumper, you are fine.
Companies who choose hybrid or 5 days in office knowingly take this risk.

I think that's fine honestly - esp if you give the working situation as the reason...and places are so aggressive these days anyway, they don't care as long as you're not some crazy serial jumper

I wouldn't honestly...if it's less than 3 months, it can go

Ethically, this wouldn’t be a good move, the rest is upto you.
