Stigma around career breaks
There's been a stigma around career breaks for too long, despite the reasons to pursue one, such as starting a family, focusing on health and wellbeing, and pursuing passions.
However, career breaks are really important parts of your career journey and what makes you unique. Still, it can be intimidating to publicly share your career break story while trying to return to the workforce.

Share your experience and learning in job interviews
Proactively bring up your career break during the interview. Focus on how your time away has developed you, the valuable skills you've learned, or how you discovered a new passion.
Connect the dots between what you did during your career break and what you can bring to a particular role as a result. For example, you helped your child with homeschooling and realised you had a passion for teaching or community volunteering.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
