Why do HR trannies hate gaps in resumes?

Seriously what's wrong with not working for a while. Like maybe I felt like just taking a break, doesn't mean I lost my coding skills

they think you had an episode and became a crackhead or a schizo, because in their mind absolutely nobody would hop off the rat race unless they're retired.
Jews get a one year pass called a sabbatical

Just lie.

What is a good lie for such situations

>not working for a longer time period
>no income for longer time
>that means you have no wife and kids you have to provide for
>because you couldn't attract the opposite member
>that means you are unsociable
>we don't want to work with weirdos
that simple

>Why do HR trannies hate gaps in resumes
Afraid you will leave them either at some point
They need working horses, slaves, that will work for them(or other corpo) 24/7 without breaks

Say you took time off because you needed to think long and hard about your real gender identity. Guaranteed hire.

I'm in the midst of a 1+ year sabbatical. When I get asked I tell them I hadn't taken much vacation while I was employed so I figured it was a great time to go explore the country. It's mostly true since I did explore the country quite a bit.

Caring for a dying relative is normally a good one, imply it was a full time carer and the death was very sad, should stop that line of questioning quick.

do HRoasties really?

change resume dates
or
"I was caring for my sick grandmother with stage 4 cancer"
or
"I decided to take time off to travel the continental United States in a minivan"
or
"I left for nepal on a meditation journey and lived in a buddhist commune for X years"
or
"I did a freelance X job for Y years"

etc. etc.

Lots of gaps means you are ungovernable and will quit as soon as you get uncomfortable or even at the first sign of denied time off requests.

And they're not even wrong.

They don't want you when there's 10000 other applicants who are much more obedient and desperate to get their foot in the door.

you need to be an obedient wagie who will never quit and accept everything your boss wants you to do. there's no merit in hiring someone who can quit if you give him bad terms

Number of devs that stays after like 3 years are a handful, and they are either leads or seniors that are high up the ladder that will get a large paycut if they ever leave. I doubt any hr expects someone to work for a long time unless they are being paying them better than everyone else

it means you can afford, either monetary or psychologically to be unemployed, which signalizes to them you are not willing to be their push-around slave
they hate it

in 3rd world shitholes it's easy, just say you were abroad making money for family
usually we work without formal contract so it's understandable

Make a 1 man LLC and say you worked at a startup

I just say that I had some very personal issues that I do not feel sharing. They’ve been okay with it everytime.
My plan for when they push is to go into a deeply graphic story about how severe IBS and hemmarhoids made me incapable of work.

You sound like a liability who will take lots of time off work and eventually get on a fraudulent workers comp claim

If they have to ask you about a gap in a resume in a direct interview you have already fucked up.

A gap in a resume, given you interview for a respectable company, is only acceptable if you are forefront about it and don't try to care it under the rug. If you avoid that topic you basically imply that you think they are stupid and don't notice the gap.

Just be honest about it, they'll appreciate it. If you did nothing in that gap, just go with the usual "depression + therapy" route.
