Description

Improve the world through your work while enjoying many rewards, including good pay. This special book covers jobs that let you do good for others or society and yourself.

 

Through 100 best jobs lists and 150 job descriptions, you explore careers in health, education, fine arts, public safety, social service, natural resources, and more. Plus, the careers are ranked by pay, growth, and openings, so that you can do well while doing good. The occupations have job functions that directly affect lives and the world in positive ways, regardless of employer.

 

Best jobs lists are organized by 6 world-saving criteria, 3 economic factors, 11 education and training levels, 15 interest clusters, 6 personality types, and more. The job descriptions reveal salary, growth through 2014, annual openings, percentages of part-time and self-employed workers, tasks, skills needed, education and training programs, related knowledge and courses, and work environment.

 

The authors explain how they chose the jobs, how to use your job and your life to make the world better, and how world-improving jobs can have many kinds of rewards.

 

With this book, JIST’s best-selling Best Jobs series now has a dozen volumes. All are based on government data and current labor market information.
