Long story short, I have a bachelors in Public Health/Health Science, and no idea what to do with it. I currently am contracted with a disabilities agency in the vocational services side of things, working for $20/hr with no benefits. I realize this is a very low paying job, but I do not know the extent of the career options with the degree I have. I’d like to ask, what would be the highest paying/most rewarding career options for me?

You should be eligible for Infection Prevention positions with a 4 year degree, but I also agree with one of the other posts about not having any clinical titles... it may be difficult getting your foot in the door. If interested in the field, look at bigger health systems or larger hospitals, most of the time they prefer to have blended departments. Blended and diverse staff backgrounds within a department offer depth and strength to the program.

Is it a red flag as a candidate to ask if a company offers maternity leave? I was recently laid off, so I wasn't expecting to lose my job. We're planning on trying for a baby in the next year or so, so it's really important to me that my next job offers paid maternity leave.

The issue is that it's so rarely advertised on company web sites, but ultimately better maternity leave would sway my decision for a job. Is there a way to ask this tactfully? Or without raising red flags?
