What kind of job can you get with a associate in psychology?
- You could work as staff in a residential treatment center for kids, adolscents, or young adults (working directly with the clients/patients). You could work at a state mental hospital as a psych tech. You may possibly qualify for a SSW license depending on the state you are in, which would open a bunch of other employment doors for you.
- You can of course be a psychologist, after earning a PhD and being licensed by the state in which you want to practice. An associates degree will not help you very much in landing your first job. Even many assistant or intern positions require at least a bachelors, and to get fully certified you'll need a master's degree.
- It is hard to get a job with only an Associates degree in Psychology. Most employers require experience along with the education. To get experience, try volunteering with somewhere maybe one or two days a week to get that experience.
- You might look for a job as drug counselor or on a crisis hotline. High-paying jobs will be very competitive and will probably require at least a bachelors degree, if not a masters or PhD.
- It's difficult to get a job with a Psychology degree unless you have at least a Master's. An Associate's degree can only get you the most menial of psych jobs, like a medical receptionist or an orderly in an institution.

What kinds of jobs could you get with a minor in sociology and or psychology?
I just answered a similar question... Basically, the psychology angle is quite limited. Usually you need at least a psych major to be able to work with researchers (one of the… only jobs available for Bachelor's level). You will NOT be qualified to work with patients..
There is one caveat - sometimes people with a Bachelor's in the social science apply for "counseling" jobs at facilities like a "group home" for troubled teens. These facilities are licensed, but they are private and generally don't pay well and don't do much treatment (they are also dangerous). Another issue with these types of facilities is that the liability risk is huge - and not worth the potential consequences. So, beware of these types of establishments..
I would suggest pursuing a job in whatever your college major was.
What kind of job can you get with a bachaleors in psychology?
A BA in psychology is a liberal arts degree. That is, it is not a degree that specifically prepares you to do anything except go to graduate school. So, depending on your goal…s, you might want to consider getting a dual degree in something like business if you want to work right after getting your bachelor's degree. If you want to become a psychologist, you must get a Ph.D. Check with the American Psychological Association www.apa.org. However, Masters degree psychologist depending on the specialty can sometimes perform similar duties as those with Ph.D.'s but they are not technically psychologists.
