If you are in school or contemplating which career path you want to pursue, finances may play a big part of your decision, alongside many other factors such as skills, talents, strengths etc. You may want to be aware of the potential for growth and mobility in a potential career and the job market for when you graduate from school- and that likely saddled with burdensome debt.
Typically the jobs which come to mind from when we are younger are nurses, lawyers, doctors, CEOs, dentists and accountants as well as engineers. However there are other career routes which you may not have even considered or looked at. The jobs you once deemed desirable may not live up to your dreams or have the financial rewards which are stereotypically attached to them.
For this reason, JobsNHire would like you to take a peek into some other career prospects which are guaranteed to deliver the financial rewards and are not tossed by career unpredictability.
Nurses are not necessarily as badly paid as one may beleive. A nurse enjoys the financial rewards and flexibility of being able to move around anywhere in the world and in a variety of areas within nursing (from working to babies to the surgery room). Nurses are also in constant demand.
Electricians and Plumbers are always needed, so one would not need to worry about the job market.
Accountants are also a financially rewarding career and could bring in six figure salaries.
Engineers enjoy the dynamism and fluidity of a field constantly evolving and changing. They can work in different fields, such as working for oil companies to building bridges, roads, infrastructure and more.
Economics is not as useless or solely math-oriented as you may believe. You could enjoy a spectrum of disciplines within the field from social science and psychology to history. Economists are also needed to develop public policy and advise domestically and abroad.
A degree in Physics can serve as a gateway into science, education and engineering as well as enter into the academic field as a professor, high school teacher or lab technician.
The world of technology is rapidly developing and people with competent skills to keep up with such evolutions are needed. This is where computer science degrees and IT people have no need to worry! You can work on computers, video games, apps
Statisticians and mathematicians enjoy an intellectually stimulating career.
Biochemistry graduates mainly go in with the ambition of eventually entering medicine. However, they can find jobs as a lab technician or research assistants. One of the drawbacks of working in a chemical lab is the constant exposure to chemicals and potential illnesses related to that.
Information Systems is another secure job which links with business and computer science industries. Your mid-career earnings could average at approximately $86 000.
