Is there any other jobs I can apply for with an accounting degree? I can't keep waiting for a decent position to hire me. I don't have time to get a masters degree right now. I've been on plenty of interviews and I guess I'm not qualified. I even told a few companies, I'd quit my current job for an internship.
I hate customer service but I'll go back to it if I can make over $50k and have work life balance.

An accounting degree can be very useful in a variety of fields. Off the top of my head, I know you can work in payroll, as an analyst, in insurance, as support staff in the legal field, and in loss prevention.

Please, I need your opinion on this. I have 6 years of experience as a software developer and just finished my masters degree in data science. Now I am looking for a job here in the US. I went through the hiring process with this company and finally got an offer. They offered 88k/year and I responded opening a negotiation.
