The "employment gap" stigma is so frustrating. I want to find every recruiter that thinks it is okay to stigmatize this, and smack them.

My girlfriend is currently suffering a lot because of this because she had to go on extended bereavement and now no one will hire her.

Can you put ‘freelance’ or volunteer work in that gap? And have friends or family as reference?
