What major did you graduate with and what's your job now?

I want to know how common is it to get a job in what you went to school for.

First degree was Aerospace Engineering with a BEng and worked a couple of years at that before joining the Army as a Medic in 1980. After GW1 I went and got my Nursing degree and joined the USAF as a ParaRescue Jumper and went on to get my Masters in Nursing. Retired from USAF after 35 years and now work as a Nursing Director in a mid-sized Hospital since 2015. The days where you would get a career in your Major and spend your entire working life at it are long gone. Find something you're good at and find a job you're going to enjoy doing, that's what matters most.
