Review my narrative. How I explain a gap or career change: [NARRATIVE]. Target role: [TARGET_ROLE]. Check for honesty, brevity, forward focus, evidence of skills kept current, and tone. Offer two versions of 60 words and three follow-up answers. Do not invent activities. Return a table and practice prompts. Add a worked narrative: after two years caring for a relative I completed a data course and volunteered for a local group; I am now looking for analyst roles. Check that the facts are true, provable and short. Provide answers to likely follow-ups: What did you learn? How have you kept up? Why now? Do not apologise for the gap. Add a short practice routine: say the narrative aloud twice a day for three days, record it, and cut any apology. Prepare one specific example of recent learning to prove current skills. Add a closing line: ask a friend to play the interviewer and ask the follow-up questions, then adjust your answers using what you notice.
