Overview: If you're worried about the major you've chosen or are getting some ribbing for pursuing history or English just because you enjoy it, take heart. A hiring manager's decision often comes down to, "Did this candidate excel in their major, even if it doesn't directly gel with the job for which they're applying?" A solid foundation of experience, education, demonstrated skills, and accomplishments are still what ultimately impress employers.
