Date gap

An 8–12 month break hidden by rounding to years.

30 seconds of theory before you start

Rounding dates to years hides months without work. The break itself isn't the problem; staying quiet about it is.

Strong questions

  • «Which month did you leave, and which month did you start the next job?»
  • «What were you doing between those jobs?»
  • «Why did the search take that long?»

The usual miss

Checking only the years on the CV.

You're done when

You have the dates in months and a clear reason for the gap.
