In my previous work experience I had a gap after getting laid off. I held various temp roles. How would include this on resume or LinkedIn?

I was in a very similar situation. I haven't included it on my Linked In.

But for my resume, I've divided my experience into 2 diff groups (working experience and non-relevant experience where I listed all my odd jobs with timeframes but without responsibilities performed). This way you're saying I was busy all that time, but here is the experience you really want to know about.

Change the dates of your work experience to years not months
