You never even say what you're doing and what you studied, so it's safe to assume you're telling a cool story

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!

Op here. Studied pharmacy, working as a pharmacist in government hospital (so considered civil service I guess Even though not directly under ministry). Pay around 5.5k after close to 7 years in service. (Not much room for salary growth - max maybe 6-7k, but job reasonably stable and recession proof)
just not sure how I compare with my peers in the private sector, so just wondering.

I don't what people think, but I feel that covid will lead to a restructuring of the whole economy. I think of you can work from home, then technically your job can be easily replaced by a foreign talent?
