Ba Job Opportunities
As far as pure astronomy... not much, I think. You'll need a graduate-level degree to get anywhere in academia/research. I have a BS in astronomy and was recently offered a job as a physical science technician (nuclear monitoring) via; you may want to check them out. They have jobs there around the GS 5-7 range that someone with a BS degree with physics/astronomy coursework can apply to, depending on your research/extracurricular experience. If you're good with programming and don't mind branching outside science, you may consider taking the leap to finance. During my job search, I found a lot of financial sector jobs (e. g. risk analyst) that valued someone with a physics background for their ability to do quantitative reasoning (even got a few interviews where I made it to the 2nd or 3rd round before being told they went with another candidate). Learn R, SAS, MATLAB (which you probably already know if you're an astronomy major), or some other statistical software (some SQL will help too), and you'll be much more versatile.

I'm a recent RRT with a little over two years of experience under my belt. I already have a BA in Japanese and went for my ASRT as a way of actually finding a career I could support myself on and not have to work minimum wage jobs for the rest of my life. I got my RRT in California but found it extremely difficult to find work in the state and ended up working for a year in New Orleans and now I work at a hospital in Hawaii that is part of a major health system on the mainland. My long term goal is to move back to California to be closer to family once I have more experience under my belt and possibly a few feathers in my cap like an ACCS and an NPS, but I read somewhere that as of 2014, about 25% of all hospitals in California either give preference for or require a bachelors from their RT's. I feel like getting a Bachelors might improve the quality of care I deliver and might help me move up into a supervisory position, but when I was in school I was told by a professor that was piloting a BSRT program that had just started at the time that it might be better for me to get a masters or bachelors in something health related like health administration or public health, but I'm not sure.

They both graduated early, and one of them is going to a top 14 law school, and the other is going on as an IB Analyst at a Wall Street firm. But they both had near-perfect GPAs and research participation. "Econ" itself is a very broad skill-set that can be very useless to private companies (in finance) if you don't have any practical experience without a high GPA, and at that point, you're competing with tons of other Econ majors as well as numerous people in SOM who more or less have a leg-up due to the sheer amount of professional services the school offers. Your best bet is deciding what field you want to go into (Financial Sector, Law, Data Analysis, Academia) and gain verifiable relevant skill sets in those areas, either through internships, research, and club participation. A high GPA is really only important if applying to a top financial firm or academia. EDIT: Feel free to message me if you want to discuss this further.
A good rule of thumb that a friend told me was to go ahead an apply if you satisfy at least 60% of the requirements (i. e., know the programming language they're using, satisfy the degree requirements, have a little research experience, etc. ). I will admit that I had to get creative when writing resumes; you have to make employers get over the "Astronomy? Why's an astronomy major applying to this? " factor. I always went with a skills-based resume that showed off my programming knowledge, research/project experience, and relevant coursework before announcing my education; it made my degree/previous research an interesting conversation piece during the interview. Just be well-prepared to answer " astronomy, why do you want to work at ____? " Best of luck-- your experience may vary, but hopefully you'll find something great!
Would I actually gain employment opportunities, or would I have to get experience first? I worry about the latter may be true because I can't seem to find any opportunities to build my resume with experience. This is one of a few articles I've read that says a MA in marketing could actually advance one's career. The article even says that, "if the master's is discernibly different from your undergrad (let's say, an Economics master's on top of a bachelor's in Biology), the value actually goes up", but I just would like to hear from someone in the field, from personal experience, if this is true. Also, since I can't get descent jobs with my degree, if I did get a MA in marketing, could I expect to make decent money? By descent I mean at least $30, 000/year, but ideally around $40, 000/year? Right now I somewhat qualify for administrative/customer service positions and I say somewhat because those are even hard to obtain because they require prior experience. I can't find any work- it's horrible.
I just got accepted into the College of Arts and Sciences through guaranteed admissions (entering as a junior). Is it worth it to switch over to SEAS just for the Center for Engineering Career Development? I looked at the UVA Career Outcomes page, which showed BS CS students making ~25% more than BA, and practically all of them had a job lined up for them after graduation (2% still looking for jobs vs 12%). Is this because of different job opportunities? It's a fairly small difference, but I wouldn't mind taking the SEAS req's. over the summer at a community college. I'm just not sure if they'll let me make these changes as a junior who just transferred...
