I’m a relatively recent college graduate. I have a bachelor’s of science in math and went to a not-that-impressive state school in the US, where I got middling grades and didn’t pursue much in the way of internships, clubs, general resume building, etc.
My question is: I think that it’s morally important for me to try and do good with my career, primarily through the means of earning more money. However, I’m unsure really what I’m actually qualified for, the option space seems both really constrained in terms of “what I know people with math majors do” ie teaching and also really open. A lot of the advice for young EA’s is reasonably targeted at folks much more impressive than I am, for good reasons I think. But is there a source of advice for someone mediocre like myself?
