is there much competition-guess it depends where you live. What is the type of job or money like first up?

Don't move to Michigan if you're looking for a job.

All about the degree you have--get a degree in something thats in demand, get lots of $ starting

It depends on what you're getting into.. How much schooling you have.. It depends on a lot of things.

michigan is alright....anyways it depends on where you are at. people have trouble getting a job after college and some dont. just make sure that you have work experience in that field that you wanna goto and a degree or two in the same field and you shouldn't really have a problem.

Straight out of college, the jobs that will pay you the most are the following (not in any particular order):

1. Investment Banking/Sales & Trading
2. Hedge Funds
3. Consulting

There is a lot of competition for jobs in these industries, but if you're smart and willing to work hard, it shouldn't be impossible.

Not really you must really play the field and fight for it.
