Fred Harteis News Articles - A new year means new beginnings: new resolutions, ideas and friends; new habits, relationships and goals; new salaries, titles and responsibilities. And perhaps most importantly, new jobs. Lots of them. And not just for 2008, either -- until 2016.

 

Total employment is expected to increase by 15.6 million jobs during the 2006-16 decade, according to the most recent employment projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Almost all of this growth will occur in the service providing sector, which will account for 75 percent of all jobs in 2016.

 

Professional and related jobs and service occupations are projected to grow most quickly, accounting for more than six of 10 new jobs created throughout the decade. Twenty-eight of the 30 fastest-growing jobs are in professional and related occupations and service positions.
