I have a large gap in my resume from a bout of depression that left me basically incapacitated for nearly 10 months.
I get asked about it all the time in interviews.
I just respond “I’m under NDA”.
I also get asked about GitHub profiles. I have a pseudonym on GitHub, and maintain a few projects. I dont divulge that information either.
“I’m under NDA” or “I only work in proprietary code with many trade secrets involved so I can’t”
I’ve probably been screened out of plenty of processes just for that, but I don’t care. I’ve been doing pretty good for myself without making my life an open book.
