What are the prospects for new grads with a finance degree?
I will be graduating in about a year and a half with a finance degree(concentration in corporate finance). Can anyone with any experience tell me if it is easy to find a job with this degree? I currently live in northeast florida but I am willing to relocate if necessary. Also does anyone know the average starting salary?

It won't be easy to find a job in any field, but corporate finance jobs are expected to increase through 2014. Since you have some time before you graduate you might want to look into an internship. AT&T does quite a few and since you are in Florida, check with Disney. I know The Walt Disney Company runs internships in their Financial Audit program in Glendale, California so they might have something at Walt Disney World in Florida. You can also get a feel for corporate finance jobs, including pay, at Monster and USAJobs.

Summer Minnick and Beach Hall Prepare to Testify Before Michigan Senate Finance Committee

The Michigan Senate Finance committee Thusday, Nov. 4, 2010 took testimony on a package of bills that the League has been pushing for a couple of years. The League's Summer Minnick, Director of State Affairs for the League, testified along with Shea Charles, City Manager of Howell and Chair of the League's Municipal Finance committee as well as Beach Hall, Mayor of Rogers City on the importance of these bills. The bills, HBs 5550 - 5554 would, generally speaking, allow local communities the opportunity to refinance existing non-voted debt in order to better handle challenging fiscal times. Many communties have expressed an interest in these bills and the committee hearing is a great step forward in this process. The bills have already passed the House. There was a substitute adopted that made minor changes to the approval process and we now are optimistic that the bills will be passed at the next Senate Finance committee next week. This is one of the League's lame duck priorities and we are hopeful we can get the legislature to provide some tools for struggling municipalities before the end of this session! For more about the League and what we do go to mml.org. For additional blog posts by Summer Minnick and other League staff go here: www.mml.org/advocacy/inside208
