I am in the middle of taking care of some medical things, for myself, and it have been unemployed and looking for a job at the same time.
These medical things are going to take, all together, probably 6 - 9 months. I can not work (surgeries are included in this time). Would I add that in to my resume or just tell people at an interview or do you think putting down about medical things is not something to put onto a resume as it would scare someone off?
WWYD?

Im going through some medical things that will be taking months. So most probably at the end of all this I will be job searching and it will be in the immediate past as in a month or two before job interviews.

So why would you possibly put it in the resume?

To explain the gap in her employment. I would only mention it if asked. I would respond thanks for asking. I actually had a medical issue and needed surgery and a small recovery time. Thankfully the issue is fully resolved.
The good news is my guess is they will assume the break is Covid related. So many people not working now. Hatzlacha.
