How do I account for one year of unemployment on my resume?

With the economy so crappy it's not unusual, at least here in Seattle,for people to be looking for work for that long. I'd just say you've beenseeking employment.

I'd go with "pursuing employment" and if they ask you can talk about constructive, work-related things you occupied yourself with.
