25 Best Jobs in America for 2016

When I meet with students for career counseling, students always want to know… “What jobs are HOT right now?!” When asked this question, I usually ask students to do their research through the Occupational Outlook Handbook based on the job outlook for jobs they may be interested in.

What is the Job Outlook?

The job outlook predicts what employment will be like for a particular occupation in the future. It is important to take note of it when you are exploring an occupation because it can help predict your chances of finding a job in the future. Below is a visual of the occupational outlook handbook website, and where to find the job outlook section.

 

Now that we've got that information out of the way, I hope I didn’t lose you! Now for the main topic, did you know Glassdoor has made the job search a bit easier for job seekers? How so, do you ask? They have  identified the 25 Best Jobs in America for 2016.  So are you interested in: Engineering, Nursing, or Software…? Great, because those are just some of the occupations that made the list!
