Is there anybody out there with a Business Administration Degree?

Question

If so, what is your current occupation and how did you get started

I've had my degree for 4 years and have yet to find a job within that field of study

What would be a good business administration entry-level job for me

Answer 1

I have a B.S. in Business Administration. I've worked in finance (investments and banking). I've also worked in retail pharmacy. Now I'm working in marketing.

You could be an admin assistant or an executive assistant.

Answer 2

I have bachelor's and master's degrees in business administration.  I earned them while working in the business field in a job that did not require a degree (for the home office of a life insurance company).  While gaining my education, I was promoted into management.  A couple years later, I left that and went to law school.  Now I'm a government lawyer, although I do fall back from time to time on things I learned in B-school.

I would suggest you seek out employment with a larger company, even if that means something clerical to begin with.  I would also suggest you look for a company that values higher education.  I've worked for folks in the past who did not have degrees and thought that if they could be the boss without a degree, then degrees are meaningless.  Avoid that if you hope your degree will open doors.
