Me too. The Fox viewers want to believe all liberal arts majors are in debt Starbucks baristas living in their parents basements.
Oldest DC majored in American Studies in 2017 and makes a great living working in a property investment firm in Los Angeles.
Awful school and major
What school?
+1. No one mentioned a school, dear. And I was an American Studies major and did pretty well.
However the Fox viewer above can't even read but I don't think they have admission requirements at Liberty University. Maybe the right size of (o) (o) for Jerry Falwell Jr?

Gooooo, nurse! We need more great nurses! Wish the pay were higher for them.
+1. And she will always be able to find a job anywhere she goes. Encourage her to go for a MS or PhD in nursing - those are incredibly powerful degrees.
NP
Why Phd unless you want to teach?
Isn’t Nurse practice MSN .
I’m in hospital administration and the doctorates in nursing run most departments in a hospital as well as the staff. Research and teaching are possibilities, of course, but in hospitals the PhDs in nursing are the most highly paid and sought after.
+1 my sister is working on her doctorate in nursing right now. She works for a major hospital group overseeing nurse training for the several hospitals in her region.

This sounds amazing for a 22 year old! Can I quit my job and come work for them?
Me too! My mom worked for an airline, and I used to go to Hawaii for Spring Break. What a great life experience for a job!
My friend is a single woman without kids, and she's a flight attendant for huge celebrities. She makes around 150K and travels with them and stays where they stay. Her vacations are unbelievable. She used to fly Gordon Getty to see his second family, but she couldn't tell anyone at that time. I know A TON of dirt on who's nasty lol.

How does a history major get into international banking?
I would assume some sort of pedigree is involved.
You mean like a degree from an Ivy? No, not at all.
You got lucky
Not at all. Look into large banks.
NP. This is why the whole “you can’t make money with a liberal arts degree” stuff is so silly. This practice has been common for decades. In many industries, they are looking for qualities (e.g., analytical ability), not specific undergraduate training.
+1. Same with training programs in pharmaceutical industry. Very few science majors. Pretty much all DS’s class were liberal arts majors.
I went into IB from Brown and 1/3 of the class was purely humanities. Corporate banking hires anything. The STEM ones go into quant research, not IB. My DC1 is in the PMLE program and he has classmates doing art and taking classes at RISD. I told him to keep in touch with them because those are going for the plastic surgery residency.

Then URM, social connection, private university/college, high achiever at high level state school plus luck. In that order.
What is wrong w/ accepting that the initial poster just got the job w/o some special help? Why try to pick their success apart? This a great thread except for you and the person (maybe also you) who was slamming on the start up.
Congrats to all these grads on their successes, thanks to the Peace Corps kid, and hopefully the Accounting grad will find a job soon!
Because that's not the way the world works. I really doubt some white kid from a nothing state school was cherry picked for I-banking, just like that. Honesty & PP isn't sharing anything. BTW there are at least 2 others on this inquiry.
Top 40 college is all you need. And great grades and something interesting about you.

Not really. I had an offer from a major bank in the 80s and was a history major. Not an Ivy. No connections.

And I don’t believe it for a second.
My theater arts major (2015) has definitely been hurt by covid shutdowns but makes a great living in New York theater.
What area of Theatre are they in? I have a potential theatre major -- interested in acting, directing, music theatre composition
