Health and well-being at Career Break, Mar 2024 - May 2024 · 3 mos, Gurugram, Haryana, India, After a little over 5 years without a break, even during a job switch, I resolved to indulge myself for a while where I made an active effort to take care of my well being. Simultaneously, I also looked for the right opportunity that would nourish my then-existing skills and allow me to feed my hunger to learn more facets and nuances of Human Resources. This break was particularly significant for me as it marked my first career pause after nearly six years of continuous work. I viewed it as an opportunity to recharge, recalibrate and return to the job market with renewed vigor, fully prepared to take on my next big challenge.
