[Job-Listings] Explaining Gap

[mbaldwin at gpcom.net]

                Suggestions for explaining a gap in work history.

The truth is we moved to a small town where there are simply no jobs for a
blind person. Internet wasn't good enough to meet the minimum standards for
remote work. Luckily the internet part has changed. We now have fast
internet around here making remote work a viable option.

I've applied for some entry level jobs hoping that a gap isn't as big of a
deal, and to get some current work history for future, and hopefully, better
jobs.

I know this may come up during an interview. I am trying to figure out how
to answer without giving away my blindness. Maybe I am wrong, but unless I
am applying for a job that is specifically for the blind, I'd rather avoid
that until the job offer stage.

 

Thanks,

Michael
