Put years only on your resume. Drop the month.
Having made this error accidentally on an application, I discovered that there is some leeway even without explanation. My error made a gap where there shouldn't have been one and it still got flagged. I've also seen resumes that had the gap baked in with a reasonably good excuse i.e. traveld to India for a family wedding followed by vacation. Spin it like a once in lifetime event. There's no crime in that
Don’t lie on your resume
If people always ask about it, prepare and use it to your advantage. Think about stories you can tell that will make you more memorable than other candidates or make you look like a good fit for the position.
List the one month as freelancing
Max you can do is a month. I had a gap and it was because I moved cities
Yeah depending on the reports used sometimes they will get a report showing the exact date. I’d go ahead and just explain each time. It’s easier to explain that rather than why you said you worked to to the end of the month but you left on the 9th.
Hmm if you left a job on March 1 and started the new job on April 30, just put that you left on March and started in April. Sounds like you were out more than a month.
No! Ignore other comments.
No.
Make your off work experience as another value added experience. Interviewers will look at and ask, you can turn the experience into valuable experience instead of voiding it.
I remember the month I left or was let go, but not the month that I started. How important are months?
