Not for me, for a friend.

Was wondering what jobs would be best if majoring in business.

If accounting, he needs to get is professional designation, CPA here in Canada , I am a student in my last year and a firm offered me 62k per year with revaluation twice a year. They pay full expenses for the cpa designation and you come out a manager after 30 months, with an easy 100k +.

in the US, you need a year of college beyond bachelors and 2 years of experience for the CPA. a lot of people don't pass it on the first try since it takes a lot of studying. gg money if you pass it though

"business" doesnt mean anything
could be corp finance, consulting, accounting, banking, etc.

corp finance best = investment banking / M&A deals
market finance best = trader (fuck trading forex and interest rates though) equity or commodities >>>
consulting is shit
accounting is shit

Uhmm how do you define 'best'? Only way of quantifying best would money-wise and when it comes to money there's nothing that comes close to hedgefund management.
Other forms of investment banking fall right behind like private equity /venture capital, day trading / share trading / forex, M&A etc. You'll start with 6 figures in pretty much all of them and can end up earning 7 figures by the end of your career but you better enjoy 100+ hour work weeks lol.

iirc hedge funds have the highest rate of billionaires out of any job in the world too.

How much schooling required, and once school completed, how easy is it to get a job for it?

If you know off the top of your head
