So many of my friends feel the same way...hum

I have degrees in History and Russian and Eastern European Studies. There's a member here who at least has a Masters in History and most likely a doctorate.
I'm an insurance broker, and he's a musician.
Unless the person really impressed me, I'd NEVER hire someone who majored in insurance or risk management. I have and always will give first look to liberal arts majors since they have to learn how to think and write. In my company, the top 3 producers (no, I'm not one of them) majored in Criminal Justice, Aeronautical Engineering and English for their undergrad. Not one has gone to any grad school. There another very big producer for us that still has her social workers license.
If you want to work in "business", go do it. Don't apply for a job that requires certification. Honestly, that's exactly what I did, along with at least half my friends from college.
