Recession Resistant Careers
3/17/08

Additional highlights of the 2008 Best Careers:
Quote:
-- Recession-Resistant Careers: Optometrist, Clergy, School Psychologist,
Physician Assistant, Biomedical Equipment Technician,
Locksmith/Security System Technician, Hairstylist/Cosmetologist, Higher
Education Administrator.

-- Offshore-Resistant: Curriculum/Training Specialist, Genetic Counselor,
Ghostwriter, Investment Banker, Mediator, Usability/User Experience
Specialist.

-- Quick Career Change. People, especially in mid-life, don't have time
for a multi-year back-to-school stint. These Best Careers don't require
one: Ghostwriter, Government Manager, Hairstylist/Cosmetologist,
Locksmith/Security System Technician.

-- Ahead-of-the-Curve Careers. The Ahead-of-the-Curve careers are too new,
small, or narrow to be considered a Best Career, but should hold great
appeal to people who want to be on the cutting edge: Patient Advocate,
Asian Business Development Specialist, Wellness Coach, Simulation
Developer, Data Miner, Computational Biologist, Emergency Planning
Manager, Green-Collar Consultant, Health Informatics Specialist.

-- Overrated Careers: U.S. News has identified careers that are overrated
relative to their popular perception. This list includes four of the
most prestigious careers: Physician, Attorney, Medical Scientist, and
Architect, plus one of the most undeservedly romanticized: Teacher
(large percentages of teachers flee the field in the first few years).
Other careers on this think-twice list: Chiropractor, Chef, Real Estate
Agent, and Small-Business Owner.

 It's too bad that we all (myself included) can't remember our own short comings at the exact moment a fellow man or woman is having one of their own.

A ghost writer is someone who actually writes the book for the celebrity who "writes" a book. Like if Brittney Spears wrote a book on her life, she obviously couldn't string two paragraphs together, let alone write an entire book. A ghost writer would basically write the entire book, with input from her. But the book would not be attributed to the ghost writer, but to Brittney Spears.

I could see doing ghost writing, if the money was very good.


I have been getting some laughs from this thread, at least.

Britney would probably be victim of multiple unauthorized biographies.


That would be the classification of a job I would like, that of unauthorized biographer.
