What can I do with a degree in "Humanities"? - J - 11-27-2012 06:59 AM

My official degree is an Associates Degree in Liberal Arts & Science with Humanities & Social Science concentration. What fields should I look in to for getting a career-job? I know it's possible to get a job with this degree, as little as it is, but I just don't know where to start.

Where can a humanities degree lead?
You are probably well aware already that your degree is not a vocational one - that, apart from teaching, there are few options open to you that will give you the opportunity to use your subject knowledge directly in a job. Don't let this worry you - the options available to you are very wide- ranging with some 40% of advertised graduate vacancies open to graduates in any subject. These range from health and social welfare occupations to commercial, professional and managerial jobs, such as chartered accountant and marketing manager. Graduates have also entered administration, information work, sales, teaching and the media. You will find a full list of jobs open to Humanities graduates at http://www.kent.ac.uk/careers/careermap.htm
