[THREAD] #HumanitiesWork

Because I was not smart enough to record yesterday's space on career paths in the Humanities I will do a small thread on some ideas shared by the collective.
1. Know your core skills, reading, writing, thinking and sharing ideas and market those skills
2. Employers are not likely to ask you about theories you learned but this will ask you which skills you can bring to their organisations. Figure out what your best skills are, sharpen them and work into work opportunities with a clear idea on how you can use them
3. Become a content expert on at least one issue. BAs tend to generalist degrees. Because we don't have to do the 4th year we have to make the effort to professionalise ourselves. Figure out a topic or theme that you can make a niche that you excel at. Doing post-grad helps this
