I garduated Business Administration as my bachelor's degree, and the first thing coming to my mind is pressure and highly competitive environment. It means that many people would like to enter this field, and at least 20% of this cohort started to run their small businessess/projects. On the other hand, it is pivotal to business remain innovative and dynamic, thus competition is predetermined. You shouldn't try to embrace all negative scenarios and risks, instead, focus on your problem-solving skills and great ideas that you would like to test in the market.

Hello! I'd certainly start with what your business will be. Identify your focus, goals and create a business plan that you can review with experienced business people in your life. With so many businesses already established, think about what will make you stand out. Identify challenges and seek advice from great leaders in the field you want to work in.

Hello,
First of all congrats in choosing a career in business. It comes with many challenges but you will find it to be rewarding also.
Some challenges:
Competition in the job market
Availability of positions
Changing business environment
Some possible solutions:
If you're flexible move to where the jobs are available
Internships are one of the best ways of gaining experience while building connections and an internship may put you in line for a job offer
Try a temp agency - I did years ago and that also led to a job offer
For the many changes that happen with processes, systems etc in the business environment continual education is the key in keeping your skills relevant and updated. Graduating from college doesn't mean you're finished with school/learning. If you find that you need additional skills in the competitive job market, take that additional class so that you have the qualification to meet what the business is looking for
Hope this helps give you some ideas.
