I got a degree from Roosevelt University and Devry and 65,000 in federal student loans. What is next?
Asked by lilgotti56I have notice that my degrees do not give me any traction in the job market. I thought obtaining theses degrees as well as my experience would yield me a great job. But now I am seeing that don't having business degrees from top tier schools do not go anywhere. My question is should I get another degree from another institution,(mindful that I already have 65,000 in student loans to repay)? I just do not know what to do. Could some please out there give me some advice? I do currently have a Job at Bank of America, but I guess it is not my dream job I got my undergraduate degree at Roosevelt University in Finance, and my MBA from Devry

DeVry may not help you, but if you have a business degree from Roosevelt, you certainly should be able to find a job. My guess is that either you are approaching the search wrong, or there is something about you that isn't coming across well. I teach business, and I haven't run into a student recently who couldn't find a job - and I'm not teaching at a top-tier school either. Are you getting interviews? Or are you sending out resumes and getting nowhere? Are you showing enthusiasm in your interviews? It is hard to guess what your issues might be from a distance. I wouldn't go for another degree until you figure this out. You might be able to use another degree down the road, but don't make your debt situation even worse unless you really KNOW that it is your lack of education that is the problem.
