So I was wondering after im done with college here in a few years then what?

So i get a lot of experience recording bands throughout my college days and involved in small labels and so on.

Once I graduate am I pretty much on my own? If I go to a Studio or a small video/audio production company what are they most interested out of a recent graduate.
My brother just graduated with an accounting degree and is working for Price WaterHouse Cooper and he was trying to explain to me how important it is to add a business minor or go out and see what my industry really expects out of a recent graduate. And i tried telling him the music business world is not like a regular job like his.

So what is the music industry really looking for in a prospective worker? What can make me stand out over the next guy who graduated with the same degree I did? Is showing them a compilation of recordings I've done a good thing?
