Survey Says:
MONEY Magazine Releases Second Annual Report on the Best Jobs in America
Exclusive List Developed with Salary.com to Find the Best 'Second Act'Careers
Nearly 60% of People Surveyed Have or Are Considering Switching Careers
MONEY, the country's largest personal finance magazine, and Salary.com, Inc.,
a leading provider of
on-demand compensation management solutions, unveiled an exclusive
list of the best jobs in America for people looking to upgrade their
careers. Geared towards "second act" careers, the list focuses on the best
jobs for four groups specifically: Early-Mid Career Changers, Parents
Returning to Work, Retiring Military and Workers Over 50. The full report
along with tips and guidelines for making the switch will appear in the
April issue of MONEY, on newsstands March 26 and available online now at
http://www.CNNMoney.com/bestjobs2007.
The top five jobs for each group are:
EARLY CAREER CHANGERS
1. Product or Brand Manager
2. Registered Nurse
3. Property Manager
4. Certified Public Accountant
5. IT Generalist
|
PARENTS RETURNING TO WORK
1. Executive Recruiter
2. Nonprofit Manager
3. Sales Representative
4. Marketing Analyst
5. Accountant
|
RETIRING MILITARY
1. Operations or Intelligence Analyst
2. Network Systems Manager
3. Field Service Engineer
4. Logistics/OPS Manager
5. Senior Trainer/Training Manager
|
OVER 50 BUT NOT OVER THE HILL

2. Patient Representative
3. Celebrant/Religious Leader
4. Financial Adviser
5. Public School Teacher
|
"Economists have been forecasting that the multiple-career work life is
about to become the rule," said MONEY's executive editor Craig Matters.
"But that doesn't mean people will simply be looking for more money. They
often have a non-financial goal that's just as important, if not more so.
What makes this list of careers unique is that it factors in those quality
of life motivators."
"Workers still consider cash to be king, but not by as wide of a margin
as in the past. Today, workers look at a broader financial picture --
placing greater emphasis on health benefits and vacation time than ever
before and often prioritizing non-financial goals reflecting a true 'total
rewards' perspective," said Bill Coleman, senior vice president of
compensation at Salary.com. The top three non-financial rewards were
passion for the work, flexible scheduling and career advancement
opportunities; however, the importance of the rewards differed by each
"second act" group.
The most sought after workplace rewards for each group are:
EARLY CAREER CHANGERS
1. Mental Stimulation and Challenge
2. Promotion and Advancement
3. Passion for the Work
4. Flexible Schedule (manage own
time)
5. Business Networking and/or
Peer Interaction |
PARENTS RETURNING TO WORK
1. Flexible Schedule (manage own
time)
2. Passion for the Work
3. Mental Stimulation and Challenge
4. Skill Enhancement (on job
experience)
5. Promotion and Advancement
|
RETIRING MILITARY
1. Passion for the Work
2. Promotion and Advancement
3. Skill Enhancement (on job
experience)
4. Flexible Schedule (manage own
time)
5. Mental Stimulation and Challenge
|
OVER 50 BUT NOT OVER THE HILL
1. Flexible Schedule (manage own
time)
2. Passion for the Work
3. Mental Stimulation and Challenge
4. Skill Enhancement (on job
experience)
5. Keeping Active
|
People in their second acts share a common priority - a passion for the
work. "Passion is the new king," said Meredith Hanrahan, chief marketing
officer at Salary.com. "This isn't their first time at bat; the majority of
'second-acters' aren't willing to the make the critical trade-offs for just
any job. Time is precious, child care is costly and they are more honest
about what they need. It isn't about advancing to the next level or
networking. For most in their second acts, people want their contribution
to matter; they want a passion payoff. It's not optional; it's the new
requirement."
To compile the list of best jobs, MONEY and Salary.com surveyed more
than 12,000 people, of whom more than 7,000 indicated they were planning a
career change or had recently done so. Those 7,000 were surveyed further to
identify the fields they were most interested in and the things that were
most important to them.
For more on MONEY's second annual report of the best jobs in America,
readers can visit http://www.CNNMoney.com where they'll find a complete
list of the top 20 jobs for each category with job statistics for each.
Also available is an online survey and stories of people who have made the
switch. For strategies to re-enter the workforce and see what jobs pay,

METHODOLOGY
MONEY and Salary.com reviewed survey responses received from more than
7,000 people who recently changed careers or were thinking about making the
switch to determine what interested them most important in a new career.
MONEY reporters then spoke to experts and survey participants to assemble a
list of positions that fit the bill for each of the "changer" groups. The
result was a list of approximately 20 jobs in each category, for which
Salary.com then provided compensation and growth projections. Jobs were
then ranked by total compensation, job growth and the top non-financial
motivator for each group.
