     @vikingkong basically this, but it’s a mistake to say anything else

     @nikitonsky@mastodon.online "Fine, thank you" doesn't work anymore?

     “How do you explain this gap on your resume?”

     Well that’s when I didn’t work. Why? I didn’t want to. Why is there an assumption that people need to work every day of their life without ever taking a break? How is that healthy?

     @nikitonsky Well, I see two possible reasons for this question:
     1. Recruiter is afraid of any hidden roles
     2. Recruiter want to know your financial confidence

     The first type should be good with honest answer and the second should be just filtered out - it's not their business

     @doodidan what are hidden roles and why should they be afraid of them? Like for example?
