  • Was your first job right out of college related to your major? Is your current job? You might find that many people dont get jobs related to their degree that's perfectly ok!

    MYTH: You must get a job that’s directly related to your college major. FACTS: English majors get job offers from investment banks. Premeds change their minds and go to law school. Philosophy majors are marketable outside of academia. Since it's job hunting season for recent college grads, I’d love to hear your experience. Did your first job relate directly to your college major?
