Because they look at someone’s potential instead of his exact course of study?

I think it’s not typical for the US. In the earlier days of our parents, there weren’t as much eductions. So somebody who studied for teacher could end up as an accountant.
And even in these days, all the educations are so niche that I doubt everybody will find work in their direction. I also think education is for self-development, not just to get you ready for a certain job.
I remember a person who did american studies and now he’s working in insurance and banking

yes but most people don’t think of education as self development and when you study fiscal economics you are much more bound to become an accountant than a teacher.

You’ve got a point there. However, when you do study Sociology you probably are more ‘in it’ for the self development….don’t you think? Therefor, you can study Sociology and end up as a CFO and not only in the US!
