Get informed before you choose a career

The baby boomer generation has affected nearly every facet of American life, so it goes without saying that they would be largely responsible for the faster growing careers in the US today. Due to the fact that this generation is aging, most of the fastest growing careers have to do with the health care industry. Of the top 10 fastest growing careers, 7 of them are in the health care industry. In the top 30, 17 are health care related based on data provided by the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Labor. The baby boomer generation is fairly well off financially and therefore able to afford the more expensive medical treatments.

Surprisingly, doctors and nurses aren’t included in these fastest growing careers. The medical industry is changing rapidly and its hiring practices are now focusing on lower-wage, lower-skilled employees such medical assistants, dental assistants and physical therapist aides for example. All this is being down in order to waylay the ever growing health care costs in America. On the top of the list of fastest growing careers is the Home Health Care Aides profession. This profession is expected to grow by 50 percent within the next 8 years. While most baby boomers are not at the point of needing this care yet, they will be in the following years. Most are opting to hire home health aides for their parents who have reached the age where they need it.

Even though there are no Accounting or Finance jobs on the list of fastest growing careers, the Bureau of Statistics is still recommending them as a solid field that is still growing to a fairly good extent. One of the fastest growing careers in the US is the Technology field. Technology affects us in so many ways today and we have in fact become dependant on it. Software analysts and network systems make up the top 10 growing fields overall. One reason for the sharp increase in their demand is security fears.

There are some interesting surprises on the list of top growing career fields as well. For example, there is expected to be a 32 percent increase of college professors by the end of the next 10 years and 33 percent more preschool teachers. This is just another result of the baby boomer generation however. The children of the baby boomers are beginning to have children of their own and requiring preschool services. Some children of baby boomers are rapidly reaching the college age as well.

Hydrology is a rapidly growing field as well due to the ever increasing population growth. This career field contains water experts who specialize in flood control and environmental preservation. In the next 10 years there is expected to be a 32 percent increase. Related to this is the job growth in the environmental engineering field. More companies are trying to increase their environmental efficiency and develop alternative energy fuels. This will have a major impact on the type of people that major corporations are going to be hiring in the near future.
