What are the employment directions of mathematics and applied mathematics? How to accurately carry out career planning and career orientation?

My girlfriend studies mathematics and applied mathematics, and her major is finance. I graduated this year and have been looking for a job in Sunshine recently. I know she is very hard, and I really want to give her some guidance at work to encourage and motivate her in her confused state, but there is nothing I can do now. I have been encouraging her to have confidence and self-confidence, calm down and determine the direction and goal of her work, and find a job well, but she doesn't really want to find a job, and she feels that her job is almost settled.

Now she is in a confused period. In fact, she wants to find a job as soon as possible, first make up her work experience, learn more knowledge and improve herself. Then locate your work direction and keep learning. But she is a little impetuous, and her heart can't sink. I just want to do more for her, even if it is only psychological encouragement and comfort.

Now ask for help from friends, the direction of mathematics and applied mathematics, and the great god who knows this direction better, or the great god who has worked in this industry for several years, to give some guidance and solve doubts. thank you
