Reply:human resources for a company or anything dealing with people. generally, any job dealing with people could be a good fit. sales. you will probably be dealing with entry level positions and the pay scale is different for different companies. some hospitals like md anderson or texas childrens have a program for children and the position is simply playing with them. if you got your masters you might hang your shingle as a therapist. it would definitely open more doors for a specialized field.
Reply:With a bachelor's in psychology, you're still pretty much limited to the entry-level jobs in human services...think in the $20,000-$40,000/year range. You can actually go several different directions with the Masters: a MA in Pyschology, of course, or Social Work, or my personal favorite, Rehabilitation Counseling. Figure that the Masters will let you add $10,000-$30,000 per year more as your career develops.





More importantly, it lets you do some of the more interesting work and puts you in the hunt for leadership/management positions, if that's your thing. And those pay better still.
