So I’m going for a bachelor’s in Business Management/ International business concentration Minor: Japanese.
What positions will I be good for once I have the degree? Is Operations Management a good place to start?

Any job anyone else does with a Bachelor’s degree. Seriously, 99% of employers could care less what your major was, so if you’d be happier earning a B.S in Art History, go for it. Sales, management, H.R, Buying/Selling, Government, Private Corporation, Non-profit, etc…

Ideally, for your skills, you’d want to find a corporation that has offices in both America and Japan, where you can put your international understanding to use.

Guess what, there’s no data on that. There is also no data on the % of high school students who go on the college. The last figures complied on this was in 1992, which stated only 60% of high school grads enrolled in a 2 or 4 year college the next fall.
The point to this is that we have no idea of the percentage of our population that depends on the jobs being exported every year.
We have no idea as to the percentage of high school student who can’t or don’t go on to college studies or career training.
What will happen when there is no springboard jobs in America between dishwasher and computer engineer?

Wow. I didn’t realize those numbers weren’t out there. that is scary.
