career breaks
A career break is a period when an individual temporarily leaves their job or career, usually for personal reasons, travel, education, or family obligations. This break can last from a few months to several years. While some may worry about potential impacts on their career trajectory, others find that a well-planned break can lead to personal growth and renewed motivation. Employers often value diverse experiences, and a career break can provide opportunities to gain new skills, perspectives, or life experiences that enhance one's professional profile when returning to work.
