Sometimes, finding a satisfying job is simply a matter of looking in the right place -- literally.

When you're deciding on a major or career to pursue, you'll often hear other people make sweeping generalizations about the job prospects linked to certain academic programs or occupations. Some common examples include:

  • "Don't major in art education. You'll never get a job in that."
  • "There are no jobs in __________." (Fill in the blank with the ones you've heard -- e.g., filmmaking, forestry, elementary education.)
  • "If you major in philosophy, you're going to wind up flipping burgers for the next 45 years."

It's easy to take such statements to heart. The problem is, these comments are often a stretch at best and downright wrong at worst -- particularly if you take geography into account.

What does geography have to do with your career? Well, we're not talking geography here in terms of Geography 101 -- mountains, prairie land, tundra, weather patterns and so on. We're talking about geography in the context of location, the part of the country or world to which one is referring. Location is one of the many mitigating factors that shoot holes in the generalizations described above.


Take art education, for example. If you live in a fairly rural area where the entire local school district has only two or three art teachers, your chances of landing an art education job may indeed be remote -- though, it's fair to say, there may still be other possibilities for you.
