Let your cancer empower your career

The world of recruitment is increasingly automated, with 95% of large companies and around half of small businesses analysing resumés using special software that spots gaps and anomalies. This can be detrimental to candidates who took time off to battle serious illness. To turn the problem on its head, FamousGrey and Cancer@work created the Unstoppableresume. In tandem with your LinkedIn account, this turns your career gap into an attribute by transforming the disease and recovery process into positive skills such as stress management, motivation and determination. Surviving cancer may not only make you stronger, but also a better employee.
