Study notes

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

  • Structure: 職歴(しょくれき) is a person's employment history, covering where they have worked and what work they have done.
  • Basic usage: It is used when listing employment on a résumé or discussing previous work experience in an interview.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

  • Education versus employment history
    • 学歴(がくれき) is a person's educational history. 職歴 concerns employment, so the résumé example lists the two separately.
