Anúncios

According to recent estimates from the U.S. Department of Labor, there are 25 jobs that are likely to be in demand by 2025. These “Bright Outlook Occupations” are expected to see significant growth in the next nine years. Not only are these jobs anticipated to have numerous openings, but they are also particularly appealing to older workers or do not require extensive training to get hired.

One such job on the list is that of a bookkeeper, with an average pay of $38.41 per hour. Despite accounting not being as popular as it once was, there is still a great demand for skilled workers in this field. A recent Wall Street Journal article pointed out that nearly 300,000 accountants have left the industry in recent years. This has created a wealth of opportunities for those with knowledge or interest in accounting, offering options for contract and freelance work.

Another job that is expected to see a rise in demand is that of an actuary, with a median pay of $57.69 per hour and a projected 9% growth between 2025 and 2033. Actuaries are in high demand as insurance companies seek to assess and mitigate financial risks caused by events such as severe weather, advancements in medical treatments, and cybersecurity concerns.

For those interested in the food and beverage industry, the job of a barista or coffee maker is also likely to see growth, with a median pay of $14.20 per hour. With coffee being the most consumed beverage in America, there are numerous opportunities for baristas, particularly at larger coffee companies that offer benefits such as paid time off, health insurance, and retirement plans.

The job of a bicycle mechanic is also expected to see growth, with a median pay of $18.42 per hour and a projected 6 to 8% increase in demand between 2025 and 2033. As towns and counties create more bike lanes and paths, the need for skilled bicycle mechanics is rising, with many bike sales and repair businesses offering on-the-job training.

In the healthcare industry, the job of a medical assistant is another area expected to see growth, with a median pay of $20.19 per hour and a projected 9% increase in demand between 2025 and 2033. Medical assistants play a crucial role in helping patients complete paperwork and providing support during doctor’s appointments, making this a high-demand profession that typically does not require a college degree.

These are just a few examples of the diverse range of jobs that are likely to see increased demand by 2025. From office clerks and receptionists to data researchers and security agents, there are numerous opportunities for older professionals to find robust employment in the coming years. As companies adapt to changing circumstances and economic trends, these jobs will continue to play a vital role in the workforce. By staying informed and skilled in these in-demand fields, older workers can ensure they are well-positioned for success in the job market of the future.
