^ I agree. MBA and JD are not the only options. There are a lot of master’s programs out there. I would not recommend a JD for someone who isn’t certain they want to be a lawyer or do some work that requires legal knowledge.
But why is your son worried about not being employable? Has he tried for internships? Worked on major projects in EC or in class? Researched industries he may be interested in? Networked within those industries?
If you work as well, you could give him insights too in to your industry.
