Accounting would be a good minor because it will be easy to get a job in accounting since the job market for accountants is growing. If you are not interested in accounting then I would go with office computer systems, anything with computers can also help you get a job.

Question by Sarah: What can I do with a bachelors in social work? Do you think its smarter to get my MSW right away?
I have about a year left of college before I graduate with a bachelors degree in social work. I’ve looked into a lot of different master’s programs and even current job listings for social workers. I want to work with the aging population so I’ve been looking at colleges that offer certification in gerontology. Considering my goals and the idea of saving money, please offer me your advice: do you think it would be smarter to attend grad school right away so I can have a job sooner in the field I want to work in or do you think I could work in whatever is available after I graduate and maybe they would pay for me to get my masters? All current job openings for social workers require that you have a master. I’m afraid that if I don’t go for my masters I will end up working at a place that pays minimum wage, nothing in relation to gerontology, doesn’t off to pay my master, and it will feel like I did all this schooling for nothing……whats your take on all th

I love your question simply because I wish that I would have asked it before I received my MSW. I would definitely discourage going right into your MSW after graduation. You should start working with the elderly in whatever capacity that you can. I received my BSW and only worked for a year in the field before starting my MSW. The problem that I am finding now is that no agency wants to pay for an MSW to be on staff if they have no experience. Plus, I have gotten turned down for BSW positions because they consider me overqualified because of my advanced degree. If you would like to start your MSW right upon graduation, work in the social service field at the same time even if it’s only part time. The social work field is extremely competitive at this time due to hiring freezes because of the poor economy. You will be competing with other MSW’s who have far more experience than you if you go straight into graduate school without any experience. Good luck to you.
