job searching

so i've been searching for jobs, but its really hard to search when i don't even know the title of jobs i should be searching for that my degree will help me to get. i've just been searching for analyst jobs. every now and then i see one that i think looks interesting, but it says you need a business or accounting degree. i'm pretty sure i could still accomplish those jobs because well, once you have proven calculus, the actual application of math (especially with just simple addition, subtraction, and multiplication) i believe is rather easy.

i have applied for several jobs online, so now i just sit and wait to hear back. while i wait i know i should also be continuing my search, but like i said i don't know what job titles to really look for. i think i still have a couple of networkings (not even sure if that's a word or not) that i haven't tapped into, but will wait a bit more before i use them.

something that has popped into my mind is during my searching and such is from someone's response to a question of how to get a job as they have an engineering degree but haven't found a job in over a year. the response basically was that engineering and science degrees are usually very specific in what is taught, while other degrees such as business, marketing, etc can be used by any and all companies. to think i thought i was going with a general degree :-P nah i know it takes time to find a job once graduating, especially if you're not near the top of your class.

with that i think i'll bring this to a close. altho if anyone out there knows of a company (or simply a job title) looking for someone with a BS in applied and computational mathematics , feel free to leave a message :-P laters
