The labor market continues to improve - as long as you have a well-paying job. The American labor force is technically more than seven years away from the Great Recession. Unemployment is close to its lowest level in a decade. The national rate of separation, which measures the percentage of workers who voluntarily embarked, has stabilized at around 2%, its best level since 2008. Yet millions of Americans are uncertain about their careers.
Finding a new job is a popular goal when the calendar changes. Almost a quarter of workers expect to find a job in the next 12 months, while 34% of workers say they regularly monitor new opportunities. This is not too surprising considering the state of paychecks. By 2016, the average hourly wage has increased by only 2.5%, according to the latest employment summary report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In addition, more and more people are realizing that this job is one of the best ways to get a wage increase above 3%.
Whether you are looking for a job in your current industry or you are trying to decide on the career path you want to pursue, searching for your opportunities can help you decide what job you are pursuing. The research of Glassdoor analyzes the best jobs in America in 2017, determined by weighing three factors also: wage potential (median annual base salary), job satisfaction score and number of jobs. Most, if not all, of these jobs should continue to be among the best jobs for years to come.
Let's take a look at the top 50 jobs, all of which are very high in all three categories and pay over $ 50,000. In many cases, these jobs represent six figures. In fact, the first job no. 1 was in the top spot for two consecutive years and paid $ 110,000.
