EP 24: How to make the most of your career break...with Daniel Walker - a podcast by Mildred Talabi

If you’re a mum – or dad – returning to work after some time off looking after a new baby, or you’ve taken a study break, a gap year or any other kind of break in your career, you’ll love this episode.

My guest for today’s show is the co-author of an e-book called Mind the Career Gap which is filled with simple solutions for making your career gap work for you.

Prior to writing the book, Daniel Walker spent seven years as a Careers Adviser, helping jobseekers successfully make the transition back into employment after a career break.

In this episode, Daniel shares his tips on how you can make the most of your career break while you’re still on it - and when you’re ready to return to work.

We discuss...

*Why career breaks can be a good thing;
*The length of time necessary to qualify as a break;
*How to "mask" your career gap with useful activities;
*Steps mums can take to ensure a maternity leave period is viewed positively;
*How to communicate your career gap on your CV...

...and much more!
