[quote=Anonymous]^^Plus, this caption from the "story" says it all: "Jon Salm, who recently graduated from college with an English major and philosophy minor, is looking for a job in data-driven marketing, business intelligence or media analytics." The kid isn't going for jobs that use the skills he gained in school. If he knew he wanted these kinds of jobs, there were probably way better majors for him. So who's fault is it that he can't find a job in that field? HIS OWN. Has nothing to do with his major. I was an English major and knew I wasn't going into anything heavily "data-driven." Duh. I still managed to build a successful and well-paying professional career based on my strengths, education and interests. [/quote]
