Do Insurance graduates work in their field?
The National Survey of College Graduates (2023) asked employed graduates whose highest degree is a bachelor's in management and administration fields how closely their job relates to their degree. About 43% said closely related, 38% somewhat related and 19% not related (roughly 6.6 million graduates). This is a broad group of fields, not only Insurance, and a job outside the field is not a bad outcome by itself.
