You might be about to graduate and becoming more anxious of thinking about what might the future holds. At this point of your life, you might be dabbling with the idea that you want to have a high paying job to make your mama proud and to meet your financial goals. But you're stuck with the question: what are the possible job choices you have so you could enjoy a profession with high pay?
Worry no more! Thomas Frey, author of Communicating With the Future shared his insights about some of the fast growing power professions in the future.
Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH)
Believe it or not, but this job belongs to the lists. Many companies actually hire experts in this field to "purposely" hack computer system in order to identify some possible problems for security purposes. The companies hire CEH before illegal hackers invade their system and steal or damage their data.
These moral intruders are expected to be earning a median salary of $92,200 yearly.
But there is still ongoing argument between privacy and transparency as some worry that many hackers could possibly use their skills for their own gain. Frey said that the only solution to widely accept ethical hackers is to distinguish what are the considerable and isn't ethical.
Logistician
The Labor Department predicts that by 2020 there will be 26% job growth in this field, based on the fact that companies are currently hiring logisticians to streamline production and to cut costs.
Logisticians have a median salary of $71,910 every year.
Frey said logisticians are in a "gear-shifting" profession and "their position is changing drastically." He said that he expects that these professionals will be moving goods soon into a more technologically advanced system.
Epidemiologist
Bureau Labor of Statistics envisions that this field will eventually grow at 35.8% by 2020. Based on the fact that the government is currently hiring more professionals in this field to analyze and find possible solution to improve health care measures. Epidemiologists' median salary is $64,220 yearly.
Frey said that this field will further benefit from the power of technology as the world is becoming more integrated with the internet. He said these experts will soon use modified technology to help them pinpoint precursors to various diseases.
