What is a good job to look for in the business field for the next couple of years?

Question

I am starting college in a few weeks and am so up and down about what to study. I am interested in math and business. What are some jobs that seem to have openings and what degree would be the best to study (for bachelor degree)?

Answer 1

The way the world is today, I suggest the best job is UNDERTAKER or cemetery president or casket manufacturer.

OR maker of bullet-proof vests and bullet-proof helmets or armored private vehicles.

OR maker of filtering machines to cleanse the air and water of gross impurities.

LOTS OF CHOICES -- IF YOU'VE GOT THE MONEY

Answer 2

I currently work 40 hours a week and go to school part-time. So when I heard about the Mary Kay opportunity I said it wasn’t for me, even though I desperately needed the money. After trying the products and seeing what they did for my skin, I started telling my friends about it. I thought: I’m telling people about it anyway, why not make money for it?? Then I found out that there’s no pressure, no deadlines, no quotas, no bosses. I could work it when I felt like it, and not at all when I didn’t feel like it. Hearing that it was named by The Wall Street Journal as “the company with more women millionaires than any other” made me excited too. You make 50% of everything you sell and it’s money in your pocket, so no waiting for a paycheck. And the money you make grows over time!

Most people, especially women, are not acknowledged in their career. Recognition is so important to this company that consultants are rewarded with great prizes (diamonds, cars, etc.) for every little achievement. Doesn’t it feel wonderful to be appreciated?

Mary Kay’s philosophy is: God first, family second, career third. She wanted to make women look beautiful physically and financially too. The fact that the Mary Kay skin care and cosmetic line has been the #1 selling since 1993 (without advertisement) shows how these products sell themselves. The demand is so high and there aren’t enough people to service this need!

This is why this opportunity is perfect for sharp, positive women. You can find out more and see if this opportunity is for you by taking the Life Can Be Good quiz (you must be 18 or older): http://www.marykay.com/adina_k/startabusiness/lifecanbegood/default.aspx

Answer 3

You know what they say, "Here today, gone tomorrow." So goes the job market. Study something that you like and that you want to do. There is no point in wasting 4 or more years of your life studying something you will hate doing just because there is a job opening in that field.

Answer 4

Find a field of interest first. In business administration, what do you want to do? Do you want to work for Big Tobacco? Or would you rather be at a non-profit fighting big tobacco? What kind of company do you want to work for? What industry do you like or find interesting that you can stay in? You can do business administration for exterminators, if you really like bug spray. But seriously, would that interest you?
Find a field, an industry, something that you like and would be happy working in. Then you can start to narrow it down to what jobs are available or in high demand. You don't want to take a job if you're going to hate it, or the company, or what the company stands for, etc.

Answer 5

Business Finance would be a combination of both your interests, good jobs would be an accountant, financial advisor or planner, insurance agent, financial sales, consultant, banker etc.

I would suggest any type of business degree as this will give you the most variety of opportunity after college. All jobs relate to business in one way or another!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

I would tend to favor the area of self employment, in an area that you feel comfortable with.

You would do well to have a B.S. in General Administration.

I have my reasons for making this suggestion, here is one if you have about 8 - 10 minutes: It's an interview with Professor Steven Jones. It's a 45 minute video and well worth looking at, to its end. At the very least, pass it on to those you care about.

Answer 7

You should get a Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance. You will definately earn more money if you get a Masters or a PHD.

Answer 8

A lot of people these days are going for some kind of business deg, and then they get their fingers into real-estate. I guess you could be well rounded in both and have a great future $$$$ if that's your cup of tea.
