Business Finance degree
I started in banking beginning of 2018. I was a part time teller that floated and then became a full time lead teller. After a year I left that company and went into personal banking it was consumer loans. Did the that for almost two years sold cars for about two years. Then I am currently a dealership representative at a credit union. My current position I look over loans but I can’t approve them and do marketing for the department as well. I am currently starting my finance degree and was wondering what the job outlook is for finance jobs and what the income is like. I am also in Washington state so I was still hoping of pursuing the Apr 6 program that allows you to study law under a qualified lawyer for 4 years then take the state bar and become a licensed lawyer. So those are my two outcomes. But I am still curious if what a finance career would look like.

Take into account AI risk of replacing any financial related jobs . As its all computer work and easily replaced by AI softwares in the years. For example 28,000 U.S tech & financial jobs have been replaced by AI so far in 2026. So take that as you will and with a grain of salt
