Hey guys, I'm set to graduate this semester with a Bachelor's in Mathematics and I don't know what job I want (which is scary).
I originally chose Math because I was planning on being a Math teacher, but I have since changed my mind.
I'm currently looking into being an Actuary, but I'm not completely sold on that yet and was wondering if anyone with a math background can offer some suggestions/advice as to what jobs are available/which jobs pay well/has good hours/etc>

I appreciate any input I can get!

P.S. I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post this, but I've seen many people here versed in upper level math, so I figured this is as good of place as any.

Maybe it would help if you state in which country you live / look for a job. Things can be very different from one place to another...

Good point, lol.
I live in the United States (north Texas around Dallas).
I'm not really looking for local jobs that are hiring, but I'm more focused on the different professions that my degree would be applied to and what jobs others may recommend/have advice about.

do you have any speciality?
and are you graduating from any specific (ie noteworthy) school?
any second major? or what is the minor?

not sure about the job market in the usa but with mathematics standard areas would be: teaching, actuary (boring but pays well), it/cs stuff
different with a higher level degree though
