Hello Sir/Madam, I completed my b.tech in civil in 2020.since then i have been preparing for competitive exams.i am also suffering from Cone dystrophy which is an inherited retinal condition which affected both my retina.How can i get a job after a career gap and this health condition.i was recently rejected by a private bank just because i had a career gap.What should I do?It seems like my career and life is over.

Ans: Hello
You haven't mentioned the current status with regard to your preparation for competitive exams.
If you are planning to get back to some regular job, yes the gap might be an issue.
But it won't be a sole reason for rejection if you are able to impress the interviewer otherwise & have credible/convincing reasons for your decisions.
All the Best !!
