The only professional exit for a graduate of philosophy is to get a job at the department of Philosophy of an University, but those jobs are scarce, very looked after and reserved to the very best students with the best curriculum ( also known as "the philosophical figures").

It means that for the 80 per cent of the graduates in philosophy, they should find other kind of job,   by studying some Master such Human Resources or by whatever job that comes along, even cleaning dishes at a MacDonalds.

Philosophy is a kind of studies that is followed by love to it and not to earn money with it or to make a living by it.

Unfortunately, those that teach Philosophy at the University and that earn money for it are not always the kind of philosophers Philosophy needs to advance,
as they are too often more worried in their personal  academic career, the power of their position, the social prestige of it and the vanity of imposing to its students and readers their own interpretation of the classical philosophers   ( as they are in love with themselves and their way of thinking).

Philosophers that work as  professional philosophers love too much fame and success , the most read or important philosophers of the time.

But nothing of this has  to do with Philosophy, as they are too often workers for the State that pays them, as Schopenhauer wrote in his booklet on Philosophy at the University (Hegel was at his time the sample of this kind of philosopher of State).  

Philosophy doesn´t depend on the philosophers on fashion at the University but on those that bring new ideas and new solutions to the everlasting Philosophical problems, or in other words, those that serve Truth .   And professional philosophers ( those that earn money, as the sofists of Ancient Greece, for teaching philosophy) not always serve Philosophy.
