       You have an ax -- You can start anywhere -- Part two. Your

520    George Anders explains the remarkable power of a liberal 
       arts education, and the ways it can open the door to 
       cutting-edge jobs. The curiosity, creativity, and empathy 
       that are hallmarks of a liberal arts education aren't 
       unruly traits that must be reined in. You can be yourself,
       as an English major, and thrive in sales. You can segue 
       from anthropology into the booming new field of user 
       research; from classics into management consulting, and 
       from philosophy into high-stakes investing. At any stage 
       of your career, you can bring a humanist's grace to our 
       rapidly evolving high-tech future. In this book, you will 
       learn why resume-writing is fading in importance and why 
       "telling your story" is taking its place. You will learn 
       how to create jobs that don't exist yet, and to translate 
       your campus achievements into a new style of expression 
       that will make employers' eyes light up.
