List Has Issues!

I think this article should more strongly address the issue of the difficulty of finding an entry level job opening for many of the careers listed here. For instance, when I searched Monster.com for informatics jobs, there were 59 jobs listed nationwide, but only three openings when I narrowed the results to "entry level."

Furthermore, I conducted similar searches for some of these jobs and found only 1 job for a librarian, 5 for veterinarians, and not a single job listed in the New England area for an audiologist (nearly all other audiology jobs consisted of sales).

Finally, the best paying jobs will often require getting accepted into highly competitive programs, and this should also be taken into consideration. This is clear to anyone who has recently tried to gain admission to either a Pharm D or Physician Assistant program.

HealthCare and Educational Opportunities

The humbling of the economy for most of us have enabled us to look inward and get back to basics. When we take personal responsibility and begin to embrace our own mental, physical and personal health- we will unify and stand together. Consider new ways to earn a living and live a comfortable life. Perhaps we are coming full circle when becoming teachers and medical professionals is more about personal responsibility v. the high dollar, stressed out career tract.

Generalist Available

Is there a market for generalists these days? Everyone's looking for specialists. I am the complete generalist. I know a lot about everything, but not enough to make a good living at anything.

This is a pipe dream. These companies get you hyped up and interested and then tell you what it is going to COST you to start. They do not risk any thing, the risk is all yours. If you have to depend on them to do any thing after you PURCHASE whatever they are selling you may as well just open a window and throw your money out it as the company has gone on to their next victim. I hate to rain on your parade but in my opinion and experience IF IT LOOKS AND SOUNDS TO GOOD......................IT DANG SURE IS.

Engineer?

I work as an engineer. Its a great career if you don't mind being stressed out because you are constantly behind in your work because companies are doing less with more.

Pay is good, but stress is high.

Dear Barry C of VA,

You have to learn how to respond to people opinions. Don't say the spelling is worse. That's not nice. People make mistakes, but the most important is to correct them. ......

Sorry for this point of vue
