Exactly... some undergrad majors equip their grads with specific skills that are useful for employment, like engineering, accounting, etc.

Humanities majors come equipped primarily with general skills like literacy, written communication, cultural awareness, and critical thinking. We hope they do, at least. They won't be considered for positions requiring skill sets like engineering, but may be considered for sales, communication, writing/content/editorial, management trainee, etc.
