- gozur88 11y agoYou can, but only if someone's willing to hire you. Employers are leery of hiring you for substantially less money than you made in the last job. The fear is you're still looking, and a few months down the road (before you've really accomplished anything) you'll quit.
- licoricetic 11y agoThere is no need to tell an employer your previous salary.

- whatok 11y agoI think a much more likely scenario is that you won't get an interview at all. An employer is unlikely to consider you for a junior role that requires < 5 years of experience when you've had > 10 years experience in another field.

- deathtrader666 11y agoWell in India recruiters ask for the current salary & expected salary by default. If you don't provide this info, your resume heads to the trash.
