What is a "business card"?

A business card is a small card that contains essential contact information about an individual or a company. It typically includes details such as the person's name, job title, company name, phone number, email address, and sometimes a physical address or website. Business cards are often exchanged during professional meetings or networking events to provide a quick way to remember and contact someone. They are usually printed on durable paper and can be designed with a logo, color scheme, or other branding elements to represent the individual or company.

What is an "apprenticeship"?
