Medical and technology professions offer students recession proof jobs
Kevin Holloway
When it comes to benefits of a job in today’s market, stability is probably the number one thing searched for.
Although many companies aren’t hiring right now, there are some companies who are.
However there are requirements to obtain these careers, most of the recession proof careers require college degrees or certificates.
Most of the recession proof jobs are in the medical and technology fields. These fields are always looking for fresh college graduates.
One of the top rated professions is for sales representatives and business developers, who tend to make a yearly salary of $65,000-$75,000.
Another career in a steady field is nursing and this field usually brings in between $35,000-$45,000 a year for a career that has a various amount of schooling options.
Software design and development is a very hot occupation right now with entry-level positions opening widely for appropriately qualified candidates.
Also the accounting field has many hot jobs that are believed to be recession proof.
Accounting staff positions, usually pay anywhere from $40,000-$55,000 a year. Finance executives normally get paid $65,000-$70,000 in a struggling economy.
There are many ways to make a decent living in a time where careers are highly valued, instead of being seen as a dime per dozen.
Years ago it was a lot easier to find a long term job that would eventually turn into a career, now even with the proper credentials it may be difficult to find employment.
Let alone find employment that offers benefits such as stability, health care, 401k, and vacation.
It brings up the old saying, “It’s who you know, not what you know.” Sadly enough it seems to be that way with most of the jobs that are entry level.
With no experience, trying to get hired could be a game of luck, such as the lottery with random chances of being the one ball selected from the barrel.
There are many other jobs to consider during a tough economy; air traffic controllers, federal government jobs, physical therapy, clean technology (green jobs), marketing jobs, and pharmaceuticals are all strong markets in a weak job world.
