That's not entirely accurate. A liberal arts degree represents the ability to learn a diverse set of subjects. A company with fewer than 500 employees is going to find that attractive. It means they have multiple options for placing the candidate, and if the need arises to move an employee to a new position, the employee will be able to handle the change.
