What kind of jobs can you get with a bachelor's degree in business management or administration?

Answer

A lot would depend on the prestige of the school you graduated from and your speciality. In general, a B.A. in Business Administration would be helpful to getting a position in a range of administrative jobs, from office management, administrative assistant, financial administration, HR, entry-level sales or marketing positions, etc.

Most B.A. in Business Admin degrees have a focus area (e.g., entrepreneurship, economics, communications, accounting, marketing, etc.) that would be helpful in preparing you for certain types of jobs.

Business Management Degree

There are many, many jobs that a person with a bachelor's degree in bus. mgmt or admin can be qualified to do. This is partially because both of those degrees are very broad based. Check with a local college's career center to see if they can give you a list from one of their software programs (ie DISCOVER, SIGI Plus) of all of the possible occupations. The most important things are good interview skills and a great cover letter/resume/thank you letter. I found www.tulsacc.edu on the internet and called their career department, they were very helpful even though I wasn't a student there.

Answer:

Some statistics show that over 50 percent of people with a degree, do not work in their degree related fields. Most employers just want to see that you have the dedication to complete the degree requirements in any field. You are no longer bound to such a narrow scope.
