Answer 4

It could be your resume format. I would ask someone to look it over

Answer 5

A couple of things: 1. It can’t hurt to follow up on the jobs you’ve applied for, but state jobs can take many many months to go through the vetting process, so they may just not have gotten to them yet. 2. Realistically, you need to come up with a good reason you left your full time job. I’ve been on the other side (hiring) and blanks on the resume are red flags. If you get an interview, you need to be able to respond in a professional way about why you needed time off and why THIS job would be different for you.
