CV Challenge: Career Gap

Explaining a significant gap in time since the last time you worked:

If you are a mum returning to work, recently travelled or undertaken voluntary work for considerable amount of time since your most recent job, explain this in your profile. If you have been to prison it is probably best not to mention this in your profile.

For example: Highly skilled software programmer who has recently returned from 15 months travel now seeking a challenging contract or permanent role that will utilise my strong knowledge of C++ and Visual Basic.
