“That was my childhood.”

"Yes, this was when I wasn't working".

Or can you explain your a level grades (when you're 25 years past high school and have a postgraduate degree)... Yeah I was 18.
Deadsyy
Can you explain why the gap matters to you? Im here now and available/dependable for work
masterofmydelusion
Yes
humptysorthopedic
I used to have crappy jobs, few skills, little imagination or boldness. Was a magnet for suck.
TarrkertheNewt
Can you explain this gap in your employment? Yeah. I was looking for a job and couldn't get one because there are gaps in my employment. x_x
magister333350
My excuse? "I was in Europe visiting friends." If they push it? "I was in Europe learning how to form better unions." No call after that!
AnythingMuchShorter
Well I got a degree in anthropology, then I worked at the Gap, then there was the gap after the Gap closed, then I worked at Anthropology
AnythingMuchShorter
(it went in the gap where The Gap had been) then there was a gap when I left Anthropology seeking to use my degree and work in anthropology.

I was criticized for being unemployed from March 2020 through May 2020. They wanted to know why it took me so long to find a new job.
HelpfulCorn
Jesus. I was out 6 months after i got laid off in 2009 and no one batted an eye due to the market then
redstaterefugee
I also work in a field where it consistently takes months to process new hires. My current job expedited me, and it took 2.5 months.

Covids a great excuse now
indigodragons
Thanks for the tip.
RadasNoir
It should be, but I don't doubt that there are employers out there that might hesitate to hire someone wouldn't be willing to work...
SomeDetroitGuy
You don't want to work for them anyway.
RadasNoir
...through a deadly pandemic for them.
Lastcentura
America maybe
Tord58
finding a job right now is fucking hard...
shinagami091
I was unemployed for 6 months and those were not the happiest times. Debt collectors came knocking daily it seemed
DukePhelan
Those scum show up to your house to harass you? You would think they would have had an altercation or two to make that... unwise.
shinagami091
Mostly it’s a figure of speech. They would call non-stop every working day though. I did have a guy come serve me papers once though
indigodragons
Yeah I don’t think unemployment is fun at all. Pretty sure it causes panic attacks.
FantabulousMan
There's a difference between unemployment when you've got nothing vs a decently sized nest egg.
LSKG
Employer writing on note pad: 'long history of drug abuse prevented gainful employment'
Heavyoak
I'd tell then to fuck off and fucking prove it

Well don't do rails off the interviewers desk next time.

You appear to have taken that seriously...and in case it wasn't apparent to you, it was a joke.
AttilaMadeMeDoIt
This question is only ever used to help filter out candidates. Be careful what you say during this period. If you had medical issues,...
AttilaMadeMeDoIt
Moving, unemployment etc don't matter. Helpful bit of advice, strat up your own LLC as a consultant gif. Do freelance work and act upon that
AttilaMadeMeDoIt
If you ever between jobs, list that as employment. It looks better than than unemployed. Recruiters will never admit legally theybl didn't
AttilaMadeMeDoIt
Hire you because of your heart operation, so play the game right back at them.
customcartoons
How bout you mind your business since this an entry level job?
indigodragons
True
aethryll
I've asked this question while interviewing, but typically only if certain patterns present. such as 6 months employed, 6 months off
aethryll
repeating a couple times. It's an indicator they may only stay long enough to earn unemployment benefits. But I'd rather not assume and
aethryll
give them an opportunity to provide a better answer, if one exists. The training program we had is 3 months and business unemployment

tax increases depending on the number of people who collect on it from your company.
DarknessfillsmyheartwithpainTIMMAY
I'm so confused. Who pays this tax? The employer? Who pays for the insurance? And it's claimed from your policy?
butthurtnevergetsbetter
You just failed the doormat test. They don't want someone who will stand up for themselves.
Jipijur
Damn, you are right about that.

You laugh, the first time I took Walmarts application survey I failed. I re-took it and answered as if I was a brainless drone...and passed.

Not shocking tbh, i applied at kmart once and it was 15 fucking pages 15 PAGES FOR A MINIMUM WAGE JOB!
