Prospects. _psychology_job_options.htm Psychology Good News for Psychology Graduates The current recession is forcing college graduates to look harder for good jobs, but despite the economic downturn, qualified psychology students should have no problem finding jobs in various fields. What's hot Students earning degrees in psychology will learn the skills employers are seeking, providing them with an advantage over graduates from other majors. These skills, often referred to as "soft skills," in conjunction with quantitative skills developed by conducting research, prepare graduates to work as teachers, accountants, and real estate agents. Experts claim the key to finding an entry-level job out of college is convincing employers you have the aforementioned skills. The following are additional useful tips: Understand your strengths and career goals. Find jobs related to your career interests. Most graduates look for high paying jobs that are in demand. However, it will not benefit you to seek jobs unrelated to your strengths and interests. Consider working in finance and business. Psychology graduates often rule out jobs in finance and business because these jobs seem unrelated to psychology. However, skills learned while studying psychology can be applied in these fields, and those specializing in human services often counsel people with financial concerns. Sell yourself to potential employers. Present to your potential employer the benefits you offer as a psychology graduate. For example, detail the advantages of hiring a psychology graduate over a business graduate. Emphasize your interpersonal and analytical skills. Consider an entry-level job as the first step towards achieving career goals. Your first job is usually the first step to a career. Everyone has to begin somewhere. Many CEOs began their careers in low paying entry-level positions. The Michiana area is RICH in mental health opportunities for students with their bachelors! Stop by Career Services to learn more!
