[quote=Anonymous]English majors are AWESOME - I and almost all my hiring managers LOVE them. Esp. if from a top school. Nobody can think and write anymore these days.. English majors/LA majors have that ability to process. Not that Engineers/Attorneys are dumb but something about writing and thinking go together :) I'm a corporate recruiter. The thing is, it's harder to "break" into the corporate/white collar world being LA/English. You really have to be willing to start from the very beginning. Temping is a really good way - it's the potential of someone who majors in this field that will catapault them upward but it does take time. Sorry! Other majors you hit the ground running - I'll do college recruiting for EE and CS all day because it's tech and you either know/don't know it. But with LA/Eng, it's about your ability to think through things and it's more a general talent so to speak so you have to find your groove over time. Rest assured, your kid will![/quote]
