What kind of jobs could a person with a bachelor’s degree in nutrition/dietetics have? And what is the typical salary?

Once you have completed your BS in dietetics, and you passed your RD exam, you can either work in a hospital or nursing home as for starters. If you have highly trained experience in working with nutrition and health, you may establish a clinic as an RD. After graduation, you can basically look for any job related to health/diet, GNC for instance.
I know that I am going to graduate school because there are just so much to learn that I want to go for a PH.D.. Because there are more PH.D. than a BS degree in the 21st century.
And I don’t know about the salary. My professor once told me that the starting salary after gradating from college is 20,000 to 30,000. Well of course it is all depends on what type of job you got. Some are high, some are low.
Good Luck.
