Which is why I've left it on my resume

one of the tertiary institutions. that's the problem, because my jobscope was very specific, it's difficult to find a similar role. or rather, to convince any employer that my experience can 'fit' their role

I thinking would it be your last drawn is on the high side ? as i believe statboard salary should be not bad one plus you have been working there for quite sometime

do you think its better to leave the last drawn field empty when i send applications?

5k is consider high if your experience is just general experience
Mind to say roughly what your area of job scope e.g account , hr , IT
Yar can try dont put last drawn actually for me i don't put last drawn i only put expected salary with nego on the side

try going into research / education / national archives / heritage board / museum / arts center / policy reformulation roles
i would think history majors have very good analytical and writing skills, so do look out for relevant corporate/admin roles. Take a look at careers@gov portal and sieve the jobs according to these types of roles. Good luck!
