In today's episode, we discuss the often-dreaded question in job interviews - employment gaps. We unravel strategies on how to handle these gaps gracefully and transparently, ensuring your potential employers see your full potential.

But that's just the beginning! Molly and I touch upon burnout, a topic many of us have experienced, and how it can teach us invaluable lessons about our limits and strengths. We also discuss the bias that can seep into hiring decisions and offer tips on showcasing your self-awareness and problem-solving skills if you've faced burnout.

Time off policies and their implementation are also on our radar. And for those considering the transition to unlimited PTO, we've got you covered with all of the details you need to make an informed decision!
