What can I even do?

Hi, 

I recently just graduated from a decent non-target school in Texas with a major in Economics and a minor in math with no internships. I've been looking for work for about a week now and I honestly don't even know what I want to do. I'm just applying to random jobs on Indeed related to finance/business (financial analyst, data analyst, underwriter, to name a few). I don't even know what most of these jobs are about except for what I read on google when I search about them. I'm kind of just stuck and looking for advice on what I really should be applying to or doing right now. I know for sure I want to be in the finance/business industry so should I still just be applying to these jobs??
