Sign Up for Salesforce Business Analyst Training: http://sfbatraining.com/ the top 4 careers I recommend can all be started with ANY college degree. This list isn’t just about the highest-paying entry level jobs, but also job security, future career growth opportunities, and finding interesting work. However, you’ll see below that many of the jobs listed below ARE some of the best-paid jobs, because the higher-paying, in-demand jobs also tend to have better job security and more options/choices in the future. So let’s get started! In no particular order, these are the absolute BEST jobs and careers for recent college graduates in my opinion. 1. IT consultant This is one of the best jobs for recent college graduates interested in technology and software. IT consultant is hands-down one of the best fields you can get into right now in terms of salary, demand for your skills, and future career growth. These positions pay extremely well. And demand is rising as more of the world’s businesses rely on software. (Even businesses that have been around forever like UPS). There are many “bootcamps” and schools teaching this skill set in a matter of weeks, rather than years. And some of them help you find a job after graduating as well. Most IT consulting jobs require you to learn some type of coding but you have positions such as Business analyst, data analyst, QA analyst where coding is not required. I personally recommend these position to people that do not want to get into coding. They make around the same salary or even more in some cases. For example a salesforce business analyst makes $100k to $200K per year and they are salesforce consultant making $400 each year. If you are looking to become a salesforce business analyst, SFbatraining.com offers one of the best training available in the market. You can click the link in the description below to sign up for their 4 weeks tutorial. For those that are into coding, here are a couple of the top programs for learning software development: General Assembly – a coding bootcamp with physical locations in many major cities such as New York, Chicago, Boston, Dallas, Denver, and many more. Plus international cities including London, Sydney, Melbourne, Paris and Singapore. They also offer online courses as well in cases you are not in one of the cities they operate in. Lambda School – a 9-month immersive program teaching you modern programming skills, with no upfront cost. According to their website, “Instead of paying tuition, students can agree to pay a percentage of their income after they’re employed, and only if they’re making more than $50k per year” 2. Digital Marketing At this point, every company knows they need a digital presence, even the very old-fashioned companies that traditionally relied on off-line marketing. (Go try to find a single large brand without social media accounts. You can’t). And as companies get on-board, they’re realizing they need a lot of help in this area. Specific work in this field includes creating and managing online advertisements (on Facebook, Google, Instagram and more)… managing “organic” social media posts (non-paid ads – regular posts that companies put out to their followers. There are many other areas as well, including website optimization, email marketing, and much more. It’s also a relatively new field so you won’t be competing against people who have 20-30 years of experience. Some of the most knowledgeable digital marketers are in their 20’s right now. So you can earn a great salary ($50-60K within one or two years, and much more over time) in this field.
