Mining, health care (such as manual osteopathy #13 & athletic therapy #15) & engineering top the list of sectors that desperately need qualified candidates, while teaching, hospitality & manufacturing have too few openings for those already trained to work there.

For those in the top 25 fields in demand (including manual osteopaths & athletic therapists), life is looking up. These sectors are experiencing both rapidly raising wages & low or falling unemployment rates. Among these professions, the average unemployment rate is just over 1%, while wages are rising by an average amount of 3.9%. That’s more than double the rate seen in the economy as a whole.
