Absolutely mention it! Not only did you do it, you remained involved , engaged and stayed current while you were recovering. I had a lapse in paid employment as a SAHM, and was told that I would be suited only for legal secretary work. Found an employer who saw value in pro se/pro bono work, and went from there. The same recruitment firms that didn’t see value in staying current are now wishing I would take one of their jobs. You got this!
Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am still looking. I am glad and encouraged that your career is going well , congratulations on your return to the working world !
Definitely mention it.
Yes, absolutely — it shows that you were still trying to be involved with the law. I did the same thing after I became disabled.
Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am still looking. So much economic churning and uncertainty in my region of NY has dried up the job openings. Looking for possible remote roles. I hope your career is going well , congratulations on your return to the working world !
