Work it

I was a student for five long years and have amassed a large student debt that I will spend the next twenty years paying off. Sadly my two degrees don't seem to count much on the job market. I loved studying both literature and media, but I do not want to be a teacher and don't think I'll be able to write the next Twilight saga (Stephenie Meyer has a similar degree to me)...so right now I'm stuck scanning the job market on a daily basis. Hopefully I can get a decent job soon, if not I am seriously considering hitting the student library again for another degree (engineering or economics)! It is really upsetting that universities don't make you aware of this or help you chose classes that can make you more attractive on the job market. Are any of you having similar problems? Any idea how to become more popular on the job market?
