Any Econ majors?

I am transferring colleges very soon with a major in economics, debating on whether to keep it or switch to something else. This has nothing to do with how I feel about the subject, I just want to know what econ majors are currently doing in the real world. What job did you get with your degree? Are you happy with your job, and do you feel like an econ degree helped you learn what you needed to be good at it?

I'm a Ph.D. economist working for a government.

A BA with strong empirical skills will get you in the door. Get some experience, especially learn what questions are being asked-- it'll help you with your higher degrees.

Gotcha- get the real world experience in before attempting the masters. Thank you for your input!

@paresseux: yeah, it's not necessary, (I went direct) but it'll help.
