“prioritizing family care over career”

I took care of a family member with dementia, which led to a 2-year gap in employment

What I wish I knew
"family care obligations may be considered valid reasons for gaps in employment"
If I could tell you one thing
"consider seeking advice on how to address gaps in employment when applying for jobs"
