Unemployment Advice

I'm 23 and have been unemployed looking for a new position since I quit my job at the end of July. I have a BBA in Finance and have some experience in accounting, financial planning (sales), and project management. One of my biggest challenges is that I don't have a clear idea of what job I want to pursue/qualified for.

If anyones been at similar crossroads and can offer advice I'd greatly appreciate it.
