Careers

Employers need workers who

• have good “people skills”
• can do thorough research
• write clearly and accurately
• interpret trends and solve problems
• speak well in public
• represent the company with poise
• can make sense out of a pile of gathered words and numbers
• design web pages free from embarrassing errors and
• are adaptable and willing to explore new approaches

In other words, they need people who have the skills of English majors.
