<p>Hotel Management may be a good one if you’re good with people and you don’t mind moving around a lot at least at first. </p>
<p>There are lots of degrees that translate into specific jobs (nursing, engineering, accounting, etc.), but if you’re interested in a less specific degree (history, communications, English, Math) and/or you want to get into a profession without a defined degree-career path set up (like journalism, marketing, government service, etc.) the best thing you can do for yourself is accrue job experience. That means intern, intern, intern every chance you can. If you can’t afford a full time internship, intern part time or attend a school where you can get funding or credit for internships. Attend a school in a center of your desired field so you can have internships during term time (when competition is less and the substantive work you can do is usually increased). Make contacts, attend all the career info sessions or alum talks that have to do wiht your area of interest. </p>
<p>It takes work, but a lot of degrees can lead to a good job right out of undergrad, even ones you would not expect. You have to plan, intern, and also be willing to broaden your expectations. You won’t get your dream job right away in most fields, even ones with very direct degree-career pathways.</p>
