Top 10 Career Fields for the Next 10 Years
We're frequently asked by college students searching for internships and recent graduates hunting for entry level jobs and other career opportunities what are the hot jobs and career fields for them to go into. We try to dissuade them from choosing a career path based upon government or any other projections as a lot of people are very miserable in hot career fields. Just because an occupation is in high demand and pays well doesn't mean that it is right for most people. We instead counsel candidates to examine their competencies, interests, and values and to focus on the common themes between those three factors. But if those common themes happen to align with one of the hot jobs for the next decade, fantastic.
The jobs which are projected to be the hottest for the next 10 years are:
- Network systems and data communications analyst
- Personal and home care aide
- Home health aide
- Computer software engineer, applications
- Veterinary technologist and technician
- Personal financial adviser
- Makeup artist, theatrical and performance
- Medical assistant
- Veterinarian
- Substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselor
