    Hello Madhuri. To hunt for a job after the break, there is a job section in FairyGodBoss if your want to apply for employment. The direct link is: https://fairygodboss.com/jobs/find?keywords=Staff%20Engineer&location=Savage,%20Minnesota,%20United%20States&lat=44.7617&lng=-93.3432&page=1&jobOpen=false&jobPage=cvshealth%2Fstaff-engineer-android-e9719450d03367a5c59889c9db546b64&filters_remote=0&filters_cmp=&filters_cmp_size=&filters_loc=. There are other places that can be used to apply for employment as well (such as Monster.com and a JOBS tab in LinkedIn). Hope this helps.

    That's great! I recommend just adding a simple line item to your resume to reflect that you took an intentional sabbatical for caregiving. Seven months isn't overly long, but it can be helpful to make it clear that you took the time intentionally.
