- Why is there a gap in your CV?
Are you also worried about the career gap in your CV and how it will be perceived by the interviewer?
If so, you are not alone. So many candidates feel nervous or under confident about their career gap. Because of this, sometimes they provide vague or dishonest answers, which can cost them the opportunity.
But let me clarify that if your resume has been shortlisted for the interview despite the career gap, indicating that the career gap in your CV is not the only criteria for selection.
The reason for your career gap could be anything, but the key to success is confidently explaining the reason for the career gap, how you utilised that time, and what makes you a good fit for this position.
So if you are preparing for an interview and want to learn how to tackle this question confidently, then this video is for you.
In this video, I’ll be discussing:
Why do interviewers ask, “Why is there a gap in your CV” or “Explain the gap in your employment history?”
Common mistakes most candidates make that can harm the opportunity.
The correct approach to answering this question.
Sample answers that both freshers and experienced professionals can use.
Get ready to learn how to handle this question head-on, and not let the career gap stand between you and your dream job.
