Did you ever take a career break? How fruitful was it? How easy was it to get back on job market?
In case you are forced to take a career break (eg layoffs), please don't share layoff as a reason during interviews
people still bias their judgement and consider you as an under performer or having behavioral issues etc.
Not always. If it was a mass layoff that was publically acknowledged then no harm in sharing that. If the recruiter is still stupid enough to judge you for that then they're rather doing you a favor for you
No, never acknowledge the layoff. Indian hirings arent so mature. Trust me green “open to work” rings failed so bad in India.

Job is your boat in the ocean.. better not to jump in ocean till you dont have other boat beside you..
