Top Jobs for the Class of 2011
Back in January we reported 47% of accounting majors received job offers before graduation, followed closely by business majors, 45% of whom received offers.
Now the results of a new survey conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) 3 have been released. Among the class of 2011 accounting majors are currently receiving the most job offers.
Private Accounting, Consulting and Public Accounting are currently holding the top three spots, followed by Financial Analysis, Sales, Investment Banking and Management Trainee. Starting salaries range from $43,000 for management trainees to a tad under $60,000 for consultants.
We’ll continue to follow these trends as the recruiting season heats up.
For those recent graduates who are forgoing a job search and have decided to become entrepreneurs instead, a deadline is looming. The Young Entrepreneur Council is accepting applications to join until March 1, 2011.
