I'm graduating from the University of Texas this spring and it's time to start looking for jobs! What sort of jobs would be suitable for a recent undergraduate student with an Economics major, Spanish minor and certificate in Business Administration. I've also worked as a waitress before (customer service experience) and in an insurance company during light paper work. I sort of have my eyes set on banking (but what positions?), real estate analyst, and human resources (most need experience though...). Please help!

I have just received my bachelors degree and have so far only had small side jobs. When I'm looking online now, I don't even know where to start. I know that I would most likely be starting off low, but I am looking for an industry that would be cool to work in with increasing opportunities in the years to come. Does anyone have any advice for that?

Best way to work towards that if I have engineering/construction background? Without a finance major I cannot obtain a position w/ any firms, would it be better to start as project management of construction, or as a property manager? Which is more related, and allows an easier transition to such a position?

Ok I'm attending The University of La Verne and getting a degree in finance. I don't know what I should do with the degree....My original idea was to go into the mortgage/real estate business, because for the past two years I've been doing mortgages, but I'm not sure if I want to stay in Real Estate because of the fluxuation of the market. What are other good jobs that I could get after I get the degree in finance? I want to make a lot of money and of course I know I'm still going to have to work my way up the latter, but does anyone have any suggestions of where I can make the most money and everything else.

I don't really know what I want to do. I did kind of want to be a lawyer but I am not so sure that my family can afford for me to go through 7 years of college. I also want to have a higher paying job, or at least something that pays decent. I don't know where to start though! Anyone have some career options I could look into?

Will get better? Analyst Predictions are not till 2013 and 2-3 million more net job losses to come. If Obama's Stimulus plan is Create 2 million jobs, yet it's predicted 6.5 Million job losses, I just don't see how that is supposed to help re-boost the economy that much faster. Should we start spending or keep savings
