I have a Master’s in Bus Ad and my Bachelor’s is in accounting. Rather than look for a position in accounting or become a CPA I looked for other jobs. I was probably overqualified but the position I took and stayed with was as a faculty recruiter for a private university. They loved the fact that I had a degree that I actually had to work for. I started there with the Bachelors and they paid for the Masters.
After working there for quite a few years and reading resumes from people with Master’s and even Doctorates I relized that the money is not there for most college graduates. I talked my own daughter and nephew into trade specialties. They make a heckuva lot more money than the college grads around here.
Try looking in other areas, don’t get locked into accounting. Prospective employers may be impressed with your degree. It shows that you were willing to work hard to get it.
Unless the employer somehow stumbled across this thread and saw what a whiner and conspiracy theorist she is.
There's plenty of money to be made out there for reasonably bright, dedicated high school graduates if you get into the right field.
