8．College graduation eventually means taking much of your attention in your first job search．This process can be challenging，especially for those students who had second thoughts about their chosen major and intended career path-or those who majored in a field not directly connected to a specific career．If you are in one of these groups，fear not!Although your major，coursework，and academic performance are relevant to landing a job，they are not the only deciding factors on where you can work．So，just how important is your major to your job search？
Some majors are tied directly to specific career fields．For example，if you wish to become a teacher，you will likely have needed to complete an education program and eventually sit for a licensing exam．The same applies to majors in nursing．If you did not complete an accredited nursing program，you won't be able to take the nursing licensure exam．In these cases，successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field．
Other majors，however，are closely related to career paths but don't necessarily require a degree in the area．For example，students who majored in finance，math，or statistics may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant．Although social work majors are most prepared to provide case management services to struggling populations，students who majored in psychology or sociology can be just as qualified．
Lastly，there are many industries，such as professional sales，education （non-teaching positions），insurance，and customer service management，which hire new graduates from several more majors，looking for more generalized requirements．They may simply want to know the student has completed his or her bachelor's degree，which demonstrates college-level math and writing，critical thinking，and problem-solving skills．
Hopefully，as a college student，you were able to do more than just attend classes．Your non-academic experiences can be very influential on your future career as well．Did you work during college，volunteer，or participate in a club or organization？If so，and if you enjoyed these activities，seek out related careers If you volunteered with a non-profit organization such as a homeless or domestic violence shelter，seek out positions in social services related to case management or victim advocacy（辯護(hù)）．You may qualify for a position regardless of your major．
Although it often seems like your college major alone determines your career fate，this just isn't the case．It may influence it，but there are other factors that influence your career options as well．If you don't know what career options to consider based on your major，talk to your faculty or academic advisor．You may be surprised at what opportunities await!
