I have a degree in applied math and a bs in mechanical engineering (double bs). While math has taught me how to solve problems and learn, figure out, solve just about anything. It is not very useful if you can't land an interview.
Sure I can learn what the accounting people do but when someone looks at my resume in "math" and the other guy has business or accounting it's not going to end in my favor.
Im having a hard time finding a new place with my ME degree, so I decided to start looking into math related fields but no luck
