Whether you are just entering the workforce or you are a seasoned pro who is looking for a change of pace, it helps to know what the fastest growing career fields are. Entering a fast growing career field means that you will have plenty of room for advancement and that your job will not be in danger of going anywhere any time soon.
While the list of fast growing career fields seems to be subject to change with every passing year, there are some fields that appear to be standing the test of time and are consistently making all the top job lists. These career fields include:
• Health Care: As the baby boomers begin to show their age the demand for health care will be steadily increasing. Registered nurses are typically at the front of the line when it comes to top job openings in the field, but the future will bring the need for many areas of medicine. While many positions in the health care industry do require a lot of schooling, others simply require a two year degree or less.
• Technology: Because the world of technology is always changing there will always be new career opportunities for those who are tech savvy. What is common place today such as cellular phones and lap top computers were taboo not 25 years ago. The future will inevitably always be bringing more technologies to the forefront and those who get involved early will probably be best rewarded.
• Law Enforcement: The needed increase in law enforcement is unfortunately a product of our environment. With the threat of terror attacks and crime on the rise due to poor economic conditions, many openings will be available in the law enforcement area. From homeland security, to prison guard, and everything in between each will carry a heavy weight of responsibility but will also help to keep the country and local communities safe.
• Science: Thanks in large part to technology, science will probably find its way on this list more times than not. New advances in genetics and other areas of high tech science will create a multitude of opportunities for those with an analytical mind.
• Education: As the populating seems to be making a comeback and there are now more children in daycare then in recent history then it stands to reason that once those children reach the age to attend elementary school, there will be an increased need for teachers. If you are not interested in becoming a teacher, there will be other area such as teacher’s aides, special education assistants, and physical education instructors that will also need to be addressed by the school system in America.
While each job on the list represents its own set of standards and requirements, they also represent terrific opportunities to get into a field that is rapidly advancing now and will more than likely be advancing in the future as well. As the years go on and new job markets come and go, these jobs will always have a need to be filled and can give you a great career that will not soon fade away.
