Looking for input from Psychology Majors.

Are there any current or graduated Psych majors? How was the experience majoring in Psychology in college? How did it turn out after you graduated? Is it easy to find employment with a major in Psychology? I have a rough idea of what I want to do with my degree, I just want to hear some opinions or tips as a 1st year undergrad majoring in Psychology.

Thank you.

Current Psychology pre-med major in undergrad. Overall, psych courses in college are pretty easy but I'm not necessarily taking this major to pursue a career in psychology in the future. There are so many career options with psychology and although it is looked down upon compared to majors like engineering, biology, etc, it is still a viable major that can take you to the right places with the right connections and education.
Sometimes, I think psychology is everything I mean psychology is the word that they created to make a reference to other words. Psychology is one word that means a million other words to psychology is the reason that we get along, the reason we succeed. I mean but in a career sense psychology is a job where you have to be able to understand Behavior to complete within a society.

I'm hoping I can make a decent career for myself with a psychology degree. Who knows, might end up switching majors halfway through.

Psychology is a lot for us humans. From our cognitive functions to decision making to behavior can all be explained by psychology. The different views and takes on how we function in our brain is fascinating to me. I hope to learn how to study people using psychology, kind of like how an FBi profiler does their job.

From that perspective it is very intuitive, psychology has modeling attachers that either to commit or adapt or have submission per in thaught on views that can carry idealing higher among its local abilities. You want an Fbi profiler exerting factor to be approached while it's more A 65 year old retiree perspective to my stand for experience. Nuzi can handle for its Nuzi. For me it's whether it was done correctly and was it corrected.
I appreciate the responses, seeing if there are any more psych majors out there with some advice.

I majored in Psychology and now I'm getting into User Experience Design. It's a great design/research based field that utilizes a lot of psychology.
