Career Break Interview Question:
Why should you update your resume after returning from career break?
Submitted by: AdministratorYou do not have to hide your career break, you should address it. You may want a number of versions of how you address it depending on the jobs you are applying for.
★ Include a short section about your career break and if you did any work related activities during that time (volunteering, teaching, freelancing, ran a blog).
★ Include an area/continent that you focused on especially if it has ties to your work in some way. I was in IT and often worked with outsourcing firms in India so highlighting my world experience was key.
★ Soft skills are most every career breaker will return with better soft skills acquired from their time on the road. Key areas involve - Risk taker, negotiation skills, flexibility, patience, adapt quickly to changing environments, and enhanced decisions making. In my opinion, much of these skills fall into one important area in business - leadership.
★ List your travel website if you feel it is professional enough to mention.
★ Look over it with a critical business eye before touting it on your resume.
