Break in service in same job.

DatabaseHead

So..... Just curious on your take on this.

I was working for a company for ~ 1 year, had ~2 months part time remote and ~4 month not working for them, once my family I moved back I was picked right back up to work.

I was thinking about listing out the position 1 year 11 months and mentioning was off for ~6 month for transition for wife work. We did move to a different state for a great opportunity for her.

I did pick up a contract position for ~8 months, but feel it's better to keep the one job together and make note of the break in service and why, instead of splitting them a part and placing a support position between the two efforts, making them split.

EG

Team Lead | Company XYZ 1 year 11 months
Blah.........
Had ~X amount of time off due to career transition for wife at city state.

Or

have 3 work efforts, which IMO looks like crap.


Thougths?

H-bomb

Just list it as 1 year 11 months

Make note of the break or just omit?

Omit and explain in an interview (if necessary). No reason to make your resume look like drama.
