The Title of the link given earlier is:
IN THE YEAR 2016: THE 30 FASTEST-GROWING JOBS
SEE HERE...Computer related jobs are in the list, however the demand and pay scale is not what you might expect.
The problem with such a list is it is only a projection and is is not adjusted to reflect the relevancy. A high demand for 2000 new jobs should not be considered as greater that a demand for, say, 8000 new jobs. But the list is keyed on on expected growth. Somehow the 2000 is more than the 8000.
Go figure.
Here is part of the list.1. Network systems and data communications analyst
2. Personal and home care aides
3. Home health aides
4. Computer applications software engineers
5. Veterinary technologists and technicians
6. Personal financial advisers
7. Theatrical and performance makeup artists
8. Medical assistants
9. Veterinarians
10. Substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors
11. Skin care specialists
12. Financial analysts
13. Social and human service assistants
14. Gaming surveillance officers and gaming investigators
15. Physical therapist assistants
16. Pharmacy technicians
17. Forensic science technicians
18. Dental hygienists
19. Mental health counselors
20. Mental health and substance abuse
Some of these are very important fields.
Others are, IMHO, trivial.
Theatrical and performance makeup artists
Skin care specialists
Mental health counselors
Really?My wife is one of the
Home health aides. Yes, she is in demand. No lack of jobs. But the pay is at the bottom. And almost no benefits.
