1 Is it easy to find a job as a history major?
It must be admitted that the historical employment difficulty is structural and there is no way to change it in the foreseeable future. This is because history is not a subject produced with modern industrial society, so there is no way to have a special corresponding field in the employment market of modern industrial society, which is what we call "the specialty is not right."
This is also the reason why many people in the history department try their best to test civil servants. You can also engage in jobs that require certain professional skills but have a wide range of professional skills, such as editors, journalists, clerks, etc. In these fields, almost all newcomers from historical backgrounds have to compete with their peers from humanities and social sciences, and they do not have exclusive advantages.
First of all, history is indeed a major with a low employment rate, but to implement it to every specific individual, you must choose your favorite major, and the chances of getting a good career prospect are relatively high. Because the impulse and ambition from the heart is an important driving force for career development. Therefore, if you love history, you don't have to care about the employment rate.
