I can only speak from experience from when I was fresh out of college with an English degree and trying to get a job for... literally anything under the sun related to marketing, communications, or copywriting.

The interview honestly doesn't matter. You're also lucky if you even get a call back for an interview. Usually, there's so many people who look just like you on paper that your resume and cover letter almost instantly get thrown into the trash.

When you do get called up - it's usually just a lucky break. Most people are fairly personable. Any number of factors can affect your interview and whether or not you're selected. I just happened to get a lucky break the first time I got a job as a marketing intern... and it was just because the person interviewing me also went to the same alma mater as me.

Language majors, like philosophy, psychology or math majors have some very core skills that are useful in a lot of pursuits but not enough to clear the hiring bar in much of anything unless you're from a top school or have an advanced degree.

Pretty much. There's a reason why I work as a SRE now.
