So I'm starting my Junior year in college this Fall, and I still have absolutely no idea what I want to do with my forthcoming English degree. Really, the only things I can think of are what I don't want to do:
- I don't want to teach (not patient enough)
- I don't want to be a journalist (no interest in the field, also lousy pay)
- If at all possible (I emphasize because I realize it may not be), I don't want to go to graduate school (I'm in debt up to my ass as it is, and I'm also damned sick of schooling)
I'm kind of interested in something from more of a marketing perspective (as in, thinking of advertising concepts), and my advisor claims that a job in this field is possible even with an English degree, and not a specific Marketing degree. Other than that, though, I got nothin'.
Is there anyone on here with the same degree who has a cool job?
