These Are the Top 20 Emerging Jobs in the U.S.
While the job market undergoes massive technology-driven changes, the focus generally falls on all the positions that will be eliminated by automation. What gets less attention is that while some industries will get wiped out by technology, many others will rise because of it.
In fact, the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) expects growth in the next decade to exceed growth in the previous one with 11.5 million jobs being created by 2026. Many of these jobs are in areas that are still emerging and the BLS data shows that "65% of children entering primary school today will ultimately hold jobs that don't yet exist," according to data shared in LinkedIn's 2017 Emerging Jobs report.
