In my last post I found information in Great
Jobs for Business Majors, but I was unable to answer all ten questions that
I came up with! In this post, I am turning to the internet to answer questions
3 and 10.
3. Are business careers really only "desk
jobs"?
While many jobs in the business field are
office-related such as accountant, bookkeeper, and financial manager, some
are not. Although many people do not consider a real estate agent or an event
planner as a businessperson (at least not in the same category as
accountant or logician) they are! They are constantly out of the office,
interacting with people, and moving around. There is a business job for
everyone!
10. What are the most desirable business-related
jobs?
According to U.S. News & World
Report, the number one business job is Market Research Analyst. This is
followed by Financial Advisor, Accountant, Compliance Officer, Bookkeeper, and
Financial Manager (My dad happens to be a financial manager at Mercedes
Benz!). I have a basic understanding of these careers, with the exception of
Compliance Officer. So, I did some research and learned that it is just a person
who goes around and ensures that ethics are practices, laws are followed, and
regulations are met. This gives an example of number 3 up there!!
I learned enough about these two questions to
feel good about the answers to all of my self-created questions! I hope you
have learned as much as I have so far. The book
was surprisingly helpful. I feel like I always have problems finding
the information that I need, but I have been proven wrong! And, as
always, the internet served as a big help to find that extra bit of info. Works Cited
