I’m in my last year of college and for some reason, I decided to design my own major, and I feel like I made a mistake, I’m looking at jobs RN and feel like no employer is going to understand it at all. And that I don’t really have much in demand skills? (FYI - it’s a BA in community development, so kinda like urban planning but more expansive, my major Combines Social Work, Business, and Sustainability)

In y’all experience, does a college major matter much in the long run?

    I could suggest buffing it up with a Certified Economic Development FInancial Professional credential? I’m working on mine myself. Could be a decent choice. A lot of the value in community Dev this day comes working with Ec Dev
