Go to college some more and get a Masters. Then you can teach.
Other than that….well, not much.
Companies look at WHO you worked with and WHAT you have done, and WHERE you are published more than "oh, he went to college for photography."
College is great, but if you are serious, get a degree in business and marketing maybe minor in commercial photography. Work under master photographers – the more well known that photographer is, the better it will look on your resume. I have that degree, and it didn’t get me hired anywhere. What did is who I trained and worked under, and what I did while working with them, and where I got published as a result.
