Banks are the best option. Although it's rare to have a job pertaining to being an economist but banks still have such job openings, though small.

Mostly econs grads who work in banks go into roles not related to economics but because of their econs background, it helps and adds variety to a banks staff type, rather than the usual Finance grad.

I hate econs and i wonder why micro econs is compulsory for an accounting degree.

I thought I love econs .... but then I realized that at the end of the day, after three years of study, I don't know anything about econs ....

so .......... I became a software developer instead ....... Laughing

TS: if you have a good honours for your econs, try and take the UN exams (nearest place would be bangkok) ....

you can become a con(man)sultant for the UN ..... good money, lots of travel ops ... one of my friends took it up ...

This must be one of the worst threads I have come across (other than those really bo liao ones...)

1stly why is this in AA?

2ndly TS ask about e jobs and he gets suggestions like teaching, banking, trading, hawking...

Well, if a discussion on future job security isn’t important enough to warrant a place in AA, what is?
