My degree is in Liberal Arts, Community Development. What would be the best way to get in the business side of things with no MBA, finance/accounting, economics, marketing degree?



Go work for a contractor in billing (field billing if you can). Even if you have to break in in timekeeping, you'll move up quick if you are good. Timekeeping to cost control to project billing. You'll be dealing with several companies in the O&G field. Network, network, network. Talk to everyone, never complain, never talk bad about your company. Eventually you'll move up within your company or one of the plants will want to hire you.

Would that require an accounting background? Would it be difficult to be hired with no accounting experience?
