Hi there,
I'm currently on a gap year (I'm hoping it wont last more than a year; its been 3 months) for family caregiving reasons. Prior to this I was planning to make a jump from public sector strategy and planning into consulting. Is it still possible now after the gap, will recruiters and interviewers understand? I'm worried that my chances are jeopardised as a result.
I went to a target school and had a high-impact, prestigious public sector job interacting w/ senior management and political leaders regularly.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
