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?

    Can confirm, my undergrad degree has nothing to do with my current career. Employers care much more about experience than your degree. You’ll definitely want to tailor your resume to demonstrate the skills you’ve gained from your degree (Hint: Sustainability is a big deal in a lot of businesses today). If you’ve had any related internships, even better.
