What was your reason for leaving your last employer ?

[DC_FC]

The above question is asked on a job application form, is the question refering to my current role eg why do i want to leave current job or when it says "last" does it refer to previous job

thanks

Your Current Job will be your last Job if you leave

I always put N/A (not applicable) under the current position 'reason for leaving' column. If you've not left then you haven't got a reason. The fact that you are applying for something does not even mean you want to leave. If there is something concrete, like the current position is only a short-term contract or something, then you can always mention that briefly in a covering letter or interview stage.

Thanks redman and pipinhull

maybe i should have said there are 5 options to choose frm so i cant put N/A

[PipinHull]

So there is a specific column/section that is entitled something like 'Current/last job' and a box where you have to say what your reason for leaving was/is? What are the five options?
