I've been at home for 4 years, with on-off /sporadic cleaning work.
I've attended a few job interviews for administrative roles (despite having only a bit of experience) and I distinctly remember three of those interviewers asking me what I'll do for childcare if I were to get the job. My partner has never been asked this in his life.
I'm thinking about putting "caring responsibilities for an elderly, now deceased relative" on my CV and not mention or indicate in any way that I am a mother. If this is a bad idea, then what should I do to make it look like I am a reliable candidate who won't turn out to be a liability?
