I finally finished my undergrad degree in finance! I feel a huge relief off of my shoulders. I'm nervous about job hunting though :(

    Awesome - Congratulations.  My degree is in Financial Planning, but there are several people in our field who have Finance degrees.  Are you interested in sales?  Are you interested in obtaining the CFA designation?

    I work as an "Sr. Operations Analyst", which is more like a project manager for one of the big financial companies.  I actually had a hook up when I graduated because my brother worked in recruiting at the company where I first worked (another big financial company), so he helped to get me an interview.

    The only tip I could offer is to check out the bigger companies, you might not really be doing finance in your first job but you will build those connections.  That's how I worked my way into my current job, a connection from my first job.
