Hi Pashupathi,
I did a bachelor of commerce and I started out as an inventory analyst for a retail company after I graduated. I used to work with stores and HQ to make sure that we had 'the right inventory, at the right time'. The degree is very broad, and you can pretty much do what you want with it. I went into retail because I used to work in stores part-time while studying, so I wanted to understand more about it.
Some of my friends went into consulting, investment banking, marketing, and even government. So I think you should think about what interests you, companies and industries you would like to explore, then try to get internships while in school - to see if you really like it or not.

Great communication skills is a competency for most jobs. Most hiring managers are seeking people who have business acumen as well as the ability to share the information verbally and written. I have a BA in communications, and a MA in business, and a doctorate in Human resources and it has helped me not only in my current role in HR, but also in my community. The opportunities are unlimited since everyone needs to know how to communicate and knowing business can put you in Healthcare, telecommunications, technology, entertainment, project management and a host of other careers.
