Everybody is having difficulty finding jobs. The country is in the worst recession since the Great Depression. The unemployment rate is the highest it’s been in 50+ years. Some of it has to do with certain degrees (business degrees are more common than many other types of degrees), but most of it is due to poor economic conditions in the country.

Hopefully within 6 years, by the time you graduate from college, the recession will be long gone. You have to get a degree in something that you are happy with, though.

The need for accountants and accounting will always be there in the future, if that is something you are interested in.
