What jobs Project Well into the Future


The government is very helpful with offering career guidance; they do tell you to start a business, but they do suggest where jobs are going to be based upon surveying and sampling.

Here's what they suggest (in no particular order):

Healthcare
Education
Information Technology
Sales
Administrative Support
Accounting and Other professional Services
Engineering
Hospitality (Tourism, Food and Beverage Services)

If you are open to work internationally, I would add commercial construction to this list. Certainly given the number of major projects under construction around the world (many countries are building entire cities!).

In addition to new jobs being created, the economy will be losing a lot of Baby Boomers in these professions creating enormous shortages.
