In my most recent Fast Company e-mail, they listed out the top 25 jobs to have based on those occupations that will be in high demand, offer excellent potential salaries, and typically require some level of higher education. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, they narrowed the field to careers that would appeal most to their readers--business and professional occupations or those in creative fields. Then, to find positions increasingly in demand, they used projected job-growth data through 2014 and ranked the occupations to find those with the greatest growth.
Aspects of my job are listed here, woo-hoo. . .

Hmmmm...four of the top 25 we are both well qualified for! That's good news to me! Especially since when I graduated from college (oh, so many years ago) the field of communication/public relations/marketing was in a slump and jobs were few and far between!
If I had only gone the lawyer track. I did mock trial in high school, I'll have you know!
