The 20 Fastest-Growing Jobs for Each Personality

Type

From the six lists of 50 jobs that met our criteria for this book, these six lists show the 20

for each personality type that are projected to have the highest percentage increase in the

numbers of people employed through 2016.

You will notice that just as income opportunities vary among the lists of the best-paying jobs,

job opportunities vary among the personality types.! e top Investigative and Social jobs

have better opportunities (an average of about 40 percent growth) than do the top jobs in

the other groups (an average of about 24 percent growth).! is is partly because the kind of

work done by Investigative and Social workers typically cannot be done by computers or by

overseas workers. An aging population with greater need for medical and personal care also

will demand more Investigative and Social workers.
