You're joking right? You didn't really complete a degree without knowing license requirements or potential careers?

Painfully obvious, a better time to ask this question would have been before enrolling in the educational program.
Here is the help you seek:
• Careers: Forensic Psychology Career Profile - Careers in Forensic Psychology
• NJ Job Openings: DCF

Actually HalfFull the reason I went to to school for forensic psychology is because i was going to go on to law school and continue my education but life happens and I was not able to do that. SInce going back to school for a long period of time is not an option for me I was wondering what other options I have.

you may want to contact people in the school you attended and see what they have to say.

when I got my MBA, people from companies would come regularly to recruit and the department had someone dedicated to employment.

Fair enough. Most colleges have great career resources for their students/graduates. That would be my first target for getting information. And reach out to some of your old professors, they often know of opportunities/resources and have other contacts of people in the field, and would know what others with that degree have gone on to for careers.

How does one complete a Master's Degree without learning about career details from professors or other students?

Even if you were planning on Law School, wouldn't some professors have discussed careers either in the classroom or privately with each student?

You have a Master's Degree, perhaps try teaching?
