Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg joins a growing number of executives suggesting that a specific field of study is less critical for employment in today\u2019s competitive job market. <\/p>\n

\n

What matters most, he says, is being able to \u201cdo one thing really well.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked by Bloomberg\u2019s Emily Chang, \u201cWhat should kids be studying these days?\u201d Zuckerberg emphasized the importance of critical thinking and learning values.<\/p>\n

Rather than pinpointing a particular subject for aspiring Gen Z professionals, the billionaire Harvard dropout stressed that mastering a skill outweighs having a business or economics degree, as such tenacity can be applied across various business areas.<\/p>\n

Zuckerberg explained his \u201chiring philosophy\u201d by pointing to his daughter, who is 40 pages deep into writing a novel about mermaid crystals.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf people have shown that they can go deep and do one thing really well, then they\u2019ve probably gained experience in the art of learning something and taking it to an excellent level, which is generally pretty applicable to other things,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
