FAQ

Questions about the Return-to-Work 90-Day Plan

How do I return to work after a long break?

Rebuild your resume and one core skill, build proof with a course or project, then apply steadily with referrals and mock interviews.

Is 90 days enough?

For many returners, yes, to be interview ready. A new tech career may take longer, but the first 90 days set the habit.

What if a week slips?

Move on to the next week. Steady progress matters more than catching up.

Is the Return-to-Work 90-Day Plan free and private?

Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up and runs entirely in your browser, so what you type is not uploaded. You only sign in if you want to email a result to yourself or save it to your CareerByteCode profile.
