2 Answers
I'm currently studying for my degree in social sciences (specifically sociology, history and economics).
I will admit that there are aspects of this course I find quite dull and the reason I picked it originally was because it was my wish to become a teacher, and I felt this degree would provide me with varied knowledge. I have since changed my mind about teaching and now wonder what else I could do with my degree. I was looking into the possiblity of completing a postgraduate in library and information systems, however I have not seen many jobs in this sector and I have heard it's quite low paid.
I was wondering if anyone else had done the same degree and what you pursued afterwards? I am looking for any inspiration that could help me decide. I am 100% certain I do not want to work in an office environment (which probably limits me - I'll end up unemployed forever at this rate!)
Please help!
Many thanks.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I worked for a food manufacturing company, and I believe you would be wel suited to a job as a production team manager, which is not office based, although you would have an office.
I suggest you make enquiries to large food companies such as Nestle, who are geared up to recruit graduates. Also consider retail management.
In a factory as a team production manager you could earn �35k with prospects of promotion to operations manager or logistics.
