Job Opportunities After Leaving The U.s. Army?


Hello all,
I have been consistently hearing that getting out of the military is a bad idea due to the fact that the economy is terrible, and that there are no jobs. The problem is, I have been hearing the same thing for years on end, and am unsure as to what to make of it. On one hand, I see people getting out regularly, and quite few of them (that I have maintained contact with) have gone on to get decent jobs. On the other hand, I hear the same rant over and over again about being better off in the military.
In your opinion: Is the job market so bad, that I should stay in the military due to lack of a better option?
For those of you curious about my skill set, I am a Supply Sergeant with a Secret Clearance, no negative work history, and have won several job specific competitions. I have qualifications that fall outside of the 92Y skill set as well. Also, I am working on a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration.
Thank you in advance!

Do You See Me Being Able To Get A Job In The Future That Will Pay Me Enough To Support Myself? (stats Inside)?


So I am only 20 years old now with very little college education. I am in the US Army and am currently in Afghanistan. I strongly want to go back to school after I get out of the Army and finish up my degree in Sociology or Psychology. I wanted to work with the FBI, but I don’t see that happening with today’s job market.
So after the Army this is what my resume will look like:
-3 years active duty service in the US Army(1 deployment to Afghanistan)
-SECRET clearance from the US Army good for 10 years as of June 2009
-Fluent in English and Bengali. Also speak French, but not fluently
-Bachelor’s degree in Psychology(or Sociology)
I just want a job where I’ll be able to support myself(be able to afford an apartment, utilities, have enough to eat, gasoline, etc). Do you see me being able to get a job anywhere in the the northeastern United States with these stats? And should I major in Sociology or Psychology? Which would open more doors for me in terms of getting a job that pays enough?
Thanks!
