In case you do not reveal the factual position or try to mislead, when the relieving order from previous organisation is sought by the new employer, the truth will come out. As conscientious HR practitioners we cannot be party to wrong practices.

Hi,I think you should be honest and tell them the reason for not being employed for 2 months. Agreed that there are lot of people who donot agree as they may feel its not a genuine reason. Being honest is better than being sorry.

Two months is not a long period to explain away.
Present day job scenario is not good and people take time to get a suitable job.
I dont think any company will ask you for answering for last tow months.
Any way the papers from old company will give dates of joining and exit.
All which needs to be told is that you were looking for suitable opportunities and about personal problem in brief if required.

Dear Worried:
Being honest with yourself - and thus answering honestly - whatever the reason / duration of your non-job status helps you in two ways. When you are being honest you speak with conviction, and hold to your presence of mind , that helps you, in turn, to respond to other questions in a better way. And honesty - being upright - is an important trait the employer looks for in the candidate.
Cool down.
Honesty is its own best reward.
